CF Bedford Motor Home Spliced with Chevvy:

We have taken a very nice CF Bedford Motor Home, cut off the cab and slotted a 1988 Chevrolet Silverado in its place.

Then spliced the Chev chassis to the Bedford chassis, retaining the Cf diff, re drilling it to take the 18 inch Chevy mags, with lowered custom leaf springs and a walk through cab.

Still to come

Trims, Side Skirts and Paint.

This proved an excellent conversion with terrific power to weight ratio, handling and economy

This is the Before Picture

Before our alterations

This is how it looks after
