1971 Bedford Truck – RestomodA true one-of-a-kind build, this 1971 Bedford Truck has been transformed into a head-turning restomod, combining classic British truck styling with American muscle car performance. Retaining its patina-finished green bodywork for that rugged vintage look, the truck hides a monstrous surprise under the bonnet: a 5.4-litre 4-valve SVT Shelby supercharged V8, delivering modern-day supercar power in a classic shell.Fitted with an automatic transmission, the Bedford has been reimagined as a high-performance street machine while keeping the charm and presence of its 1970s commercial origins. With only 1,469 km indicated since its build, it’s effectively a fresh project ready to be enjoyed and further personalised.The cultural appeal of this truck lies in its juxtaposition — a workhorse from an era when Bedford trucks were a common sight across Australia, now reinvented with Shelby muscle to create a machine unlike anything else on the road. Restomods like this are celebrated globally for breathing new life into classics while pushing performance into uncharted territory.SpecificationsYear: 1971Make: BedfordModel: TruckBody: Pickup TruckDrive Type: Rear Wheel DriveOdometer: Indicating 1,469 kmEngine: 5.4L 4-valve SVT Shelby Supercharged Crate Motor V8Transmission: AutomaticColour: Green/PatinaSeats: 2Chassis No: CDD0B00694866For any questions or to arrange a physical or virtual inspection, please contact Vorak directly on 0419 371 926.Price Guide: TBAVendor Advises:Gearbox: Turbo 400 custom bell housing to suit coyoteCustom 2 piece tailshaft to suit turbo 400 and toyota landcruiser differential Front chassis clip landcruiser 200 series crafter to original bedford chassisRear landcruiser 200 series differential to suit bedford chassisPowertune digital dashXw aluminum radiatorProflow expansion reservoirProflow power steering reservoir.Collapsible steering column.
