1960 BEDFORD J3 TYPE

This green Bedford J3 lorry has been with the same family since new. It was restored in 1990, a process which involved galvanising the chassis and fitting new wings, front bumper and a new wooden dropside body, followed by a full respray. DfT test certificates show that it was on the road in the 1990s, but it has been stored in a barn since 1998. 

Also present are spare keys, a 1969 plating certificate regarding the vehicle's weights, and the V5C which indicates only 1 change of keeper in 2013, when it passed from A. J. Ward to P. D. Ward. The lorry was first registered on 1st December 1960, and its odometer is displaying 105,048 miles.

The vendor notes that the indicators are not working.
