Hi Folks,
Just had this thread pointed out to me a by a friend.
Here I am with my BR Bedford HA van, one of the very last HA van ever registered.
Cheers.

Hi Merfyn,
My HA is a labour of love.
As for NNK93F (actual number HTV363V) I did try to buy it during my search for a BR HA. It was originally used by the S&T at Manchester Victoria, then bought by one of the engineers for his wife to use. She is Irene who runs the ELR shop.
In 1991 HTV failed its MOT and was seconded into the museum. The current owner is very difficult to deal with, so I ended up looking elsewhere.
Mine originally registered and used in Chester, One of the last HA's ever built, I think only 3 chassis numbers went higher than mine! I located it in County Durham, and drove her home for a thorough restoration. I have had some silly offers for the van, but she's going nowhere!!
Currently tucked up for the winter, preparing for the show season.
Cheers
