Welcome to my auction for my Bedford MK
She's 1980 so mot and tax exempt next year, has got the 8.2litre Bedford 500 turbo fitted, speed gearbox, Power steering!! and modified to tilt cab.
Currently down rated to 7.5ton, all they've done is remove the 'L' brackets that support the second helper springs on the rear leafs so easily re-instated should you wish. 
Was on the road fo 5-10yrs with these mod's so all well tested. 
Up and running in photos, Engines sweet and she goes treat! Starts first time every time, drives superb and the power steering makes for easy driving.
Just spent £1,000 on new brakes all round including the following - 
 New wheel cylinders all roundnew rigid brake lines where needed new flexible brake hoses New stainless master cylinder. 
All bearings and seals inspected at the time and found to be in good order.
Front Swivels still chrome and in good order.
Clutch good
Brakes excellent!!
Coolant drained and refreshed
Decent batteries
No current MOT but don't *think* it'll need much i.e. headlights, mudflats, lights checking/replacing, even had new number plates made ready! It will need new Steering column thats included in the sale (1/2hr job to fit)
In very good general condition with the vast majority of the chassis/axles etc still in original paint, just needs paint up really ready for the show season. 
Things it needs - 
The previous owner cut out some of the cab floor to allow more air flow to the rad, this has ply box/cowl built over it but it was rotten so through it out, so needs new cowl made and repair around the floor where they fitted the power steering, other than that cab is solid but does need tidying. Its also had centre engine cowl hand made, its not the prettiest thing in the world and needs fixing in place but functional enough.
New timber bed £100 scaffold boards should do the trick
4x4 and hi-lo cables are missing as the turbo obstructs their current position, it all works, I was just reaching under and selecting what I wanted by hand. Id planned to use boast morse control cables.
Its got twin Kenlowe fans fitted, these just need wiring up.
Its now back on its standard bar grip wheels and tyres, useable enough, still legal. The goodyears shown in the photo and near enough new and available for an extra £800 should you wish (theres of them)
I also have accumulated huge box of general spares that can also be purchased for an extra £400 should you want them.
Viewing welcome and advised, I have short off the highway area you can try her on and kettle on the stove!
Winning bidder to pay non-refundable deposit of £200 within 24hrs of auction end or it gets resisted. Sorry but ive heard all the excuses under the sun over the years and it costs lot to sell on here now and it won't be coming out of my pocket!
Cash only, NO PAYPAL
Best of luck :)
