I thought some of the CF's had a Bedford by Holden bonnet badge..... If I find one, would send it to you, so you can tell them next year where to go...And not politely. ;)

They had a 'Powered By Holden' sticker under the Bedford badge.

I could make a couple of these for anyone that wants, but I don't think it would satisfy those Holden purists. LOL

Yep your right Hobbit stickers dont count nor do Compliance plates issued " Manufacted by General Motors Holden PTY LTD"
all bedfords have that but OOOOOHHHHH NNNOOOOOO  no it did not come with a Holden Badge so its not a holden...
got me confused as Holden owners seem to think thay can increase power by adding a Chev badge and it is totally accepted by the Holden lovers ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Not going next year or any actually if they cant accept a black sheep cousin in the family  to their meets ;)

All ford day had the same thing in Adelaide 10 years ago...had a sign saying all ford powered vehicles and the some "highly intelligent person" tried to stop a Bolwell (mk 7 ?) with a 351 going in (as built in the bolwell factory in melbourne)

So the next year they changed the rules... to all ford BUILT vehicles.
And they wonder why numbers are dropping off.......

yeah Truck I might just have out kooled them.....when we were at the gate with all the carfuffle...some random dude come up to our window and asked if the van was for sale??? 
Ray said yes and i said NO unless he has 20k hahaha
this random guy wanted to buy a van already done up for next to nothing...didnt want to do all the hard yakka
reckons he turned up to buy a car that day and loved bedfords and has been hassling a guy in Asthpen?? for two years to sell his LWB to him...and low and behold that guy wanted 20 k as well !
Hey we cant have everyone liking bedfords as there are not enough to round them eh...
so sssshhhhhh we cant tell the world how good they ...they have to have bedfords in their genes to really like and own one...then you get one by hook or by crook to own one and spend a small fortune and time doing it up.

Cheers Wendy & Ray

Well i recon holden went belly up after the WB
 and VK,
Anything built after them were rubbish
Computers, plastic and tin instead of steel and chrome.  :)

Our bedfords are more holden than that crap thats for sure
To be sure to be sure. :)
