1965 Bedford J5L 6ton Tip Truck
I bought this truck with the thoughts that I could tidy it up a bit and the use it to move my crawler tractor and my Fergie tractor around to vintage machinery shows etc, however I just do not have the time for this project.
It is a shame because it will be a great project, as it has been a country/farm truck all it's life, and has no real rust of any concern at all, and one of the reasons why I bought this truck is that it is all there, complete and completely unmolested, all it's glass is intact, even has it's crank handle (not needed) the key is in the ignition, even the tipper still works well.
It just needs a bit of loving, a bit of beating, and a bit of painting, the brakes need some work (they are boosted hydraulic), the as you can see the engine runs, though I would have given it a freshen up before I put it on the road, it does appear to be missing on one cylinder, and I haven't checked if it's a sticky valve or maybe just a crook spark plug lead.
Sadly I just don't have time to play with it.
