1979 TK BEDFORD for Sale - Traralgon VIC.

Ok all you wanna be guns- this one's for you . Unfortunately health problems have forced the sale of this fine unit and a halt of any notion to turn this Beddy into a horse transporter . It is fitted with 16 inch diam. wheels , checkerplate steel tray and a very useful tailgate loader .
now for the serious stuff - 350 Chev small block 4 barrel , coupled to a five speed overdrive box - highly geared for highway use or salt flat racing - it cracks . Fitted with many extras to stand out from the British stuff - a very neat little gigger ! Enough of the sales pitch . Just had heaps spent for a roadworthy $4,500 , steering , brakes , new screen and rubber , blah , blah
rego -XLM 647 , GVM - 6500 , TARE 2930 , currently registered till 29 January 2012 . The all important issue - $10,800 of the folding kind . No wankers and no stupid offers ! This is the best late model little Beddy you will find in a long time - just try to set it up for the asking price . Paint work unfortunately is crap white . As I said - unable to proceed with the project now . Contact Clarke 0412 742840 if you are genuine

what is the tray length and width

This truck used be owned by David Knight the bloke who made fish tanks and bar fidges out of old petrol bowsers he also did a few jobs for Road Trans Haulage carting dyes . Dave

Gee Dave is that all you can come up with - thought it may be a fast transporter for the grey ghost .
Am away at the moment will post tray measurements when I get home , cheers Clarke .

Spoke to David Knight at Trafalgar 2008 and he was rightly proud of his truck and loved driving her. A good truck that'll hopefully find a good home.

TRAY SIZE - 15 FOOT LONG , 8 FOOT WIDE yes imperial measurements cos' it's old school . Just right for that old tractor or Ronaldson & Tippett oil engine .

Come on you blokes - you all rave about old stuff , especially Bedfords - well at least this jigger keeps up with the modern stuff and even lots more !

It'd pass everything except a Fuel Bowser :'( :'(

Oh hayseed another armchair account of fuel economy - you would be very wrong !
