Hello and.. what model is my van???!

Hello there chaps,

I'm new to al this, having just brought an 1981 Bedford ambulance!

It's quite a cracker but needs an engine change (snapped piston or something?)

I was planning on fitting a diesel anyway, but a little sooner than planned :P

So, question is... anyone know exactly what model this is? So I can find more info about what engine is in it etc?

I cannot seem to find anything else as tall, as big, and with a split screen....
Logbook just says CF...

Any ideas?



Thanks so much, super happy this place exists! :)

Hi and welcome to the site. Your van looks to me like a Hawson conversion. Take a look at This Link It'll probably be based on a standard CF350 chassis/cowl.

Plus, if you go HERE and type in your vans VIN it (should!) give you a bit more info on the van such as wheelbase, GVW, engine details and axle ratio.
