A promotional film by Vauxhall Motors describing the World-Wide operations & support for Bedford trucks. Special thanks to John Kyros at GM Media Archive for searching out the material.
Still got my 1974 Tk tipper, Australian assembled, with 250 ci Mexican Chev 6cyl, this was the motor supplied from the General Motors Holden's factory at Dandenong. Great little truck. Terrific film.
I wish it was a 292, the smaller models only got the 250 in the early 1970s, as it was an upgrade on the 214 Bedford motor. My family had a bigger later model with a 292 Chev. It was more common to see this size motor.
Yeah... 40 years of a dictatorial, ruinous, corrupt and costly EU. Now we're out and free to trade on our own terms. Let's look forward and try to reignite design, innovation and fair competition without negative remoaners!
