Hi Fellow Beddie nuts
I have been checking out the info & pics on the site for a little while but have not added to it yet. After meeting up with Wendy, Kaz, Alan & the other Bugas @ the van show at Rowville I thought it was time to become more active. I have a 1974 Windowless CFS van which is a work in progress. This is my first Beddie, but not my only classic vehicle. At this time it is pretty much bog std running a  173 & traumatic auto. Have removed Beddie front discs & fitted HQ Discs, Replaced diff with a 10 bolt unit. Plan to keep it fairly original just enough changes to improve safety.

Welcome. Always good to have another voice on the site. Lots to learn here and people to help when issues arise.... So what other classics do you own?
Cheers
Russell
