Manufacturer description

Bedford was a subsidiary of Vauxhall Motors, in turn the British subsidiary of General Motors, established in 1930 constructing commercial vehicles. Our latest release on the Bedford OY is as used by British Road Services - the Wisbech Group. With its familiar lion and wheel logo, BRS was a familiar sight on the UK roads and as part of the railway station scene well into the 1950s. The dropside truck with its flatbed planked out rear section is a six-wheeler comprising a double back wheel configuration. Registered JV8825, the model is decorated in red with black trim and olive green interior. The most colourful element of it is the well detailed BRS logo which features on both the side doors.
