Has this VINTAGE BEDFORD TRUCK ENGINE Recently Been Restored & Should I Take it Apart to Find Out?

Описание: #52 - It is a big week here at Old Rope Salvage: A big week for dilemmas, that is, as Tim grapples with the mystery of our engine which gets wheeled out into the spotlight at last … Has it been worked on before? Does he need to take it apart? Or should he, as Lisa for one is secretly hoping, leave well alone and just get some paint on it? Some tricky decisions lie ahead, so tell us … what would you do in this situation? Lisa is still taking a break as Engines aren’t really her forte, so don’t forget to give Tim some encouragement whilst he’s on his own, and fingers crossed we’ll soon have this old Bedford fully restored and back on the road as the home on wheels we’ve all been dreaming of for so very, very long …

…

This channel is the story of us, Tim & Lisa, and our attempt to build the World's Greatest HOUSE-on-WHEELS on the World's Smallest Budget ... A unique motorhome, if you like, part vintage 70s, part off road overlander, all tiny home on wheels.

We are 2 'old enough to know better' artists from Cornwall in the UK, and together we are building this off-grid home on wheels from the remains of a 1975 Bedford Firetruck.

We bought the truck on eBay at the end of 2020 and had it delivered by an even bigger truck to a huge, old barn-on-a-farm we are renting to use as our workshop whilst we undertake this challenge.

Well, several YEARS and a few set backs later, we’re currently in the process of ‘lovingly’ restoring the base vehicle, taking the whole thing apart, piece by rusty piece, so we can make it all new and shiny again, before we embark on the even bigger task of building a home on its back out of nothing more than grit, imagination, sweat, tears and possibly a bit of magic and wishful thinking!

Oh, and tea!
