Bedford 300 series engine
« on: 10 September 2010, 14:44:53 »
Hello, My dad's got some fire engines, one of which is a 1962 Bedford TJ.

It's got a 300 series (I think) engine. Straight six 4.8 litre, mated to a crash box, it makes for some awkward driving!

Anyway, whilst not a very good test or comparison, it sounds notoriously like my old 3.0 litre 12v Senator. Is the Senny engine a descendant?
