https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/426364289701378055/ Bedford CA Dormobile Debonair I think CA because of wheel-arch shapes and the way the styling feature drops towards the rear. |

Forum post: "I’ve purchased a Bedford CA Dormobile ‘camper’ but I’ve no idea exactly what model it is. ...looks like a Debonair but without the back door and the raised roof and she’s got windows all the way down both sides. Interior camper bit is homemade and on the dash it says she’s a Martin Walter Utilabus but she looks nothing like what comes up when you search for a Bedford Utilabus. The guy I bought it off doesn’t know much about her as she was left in the garage of his house when he purchased it, but he reckons she was a minibus which has been converted into a camper (which seems very likely). After hours of searching the internet I’ve found another one http://imcdb.org/vehicle_25255-Bedford-CA-1964.html which was on an episode of the Royal. I believe has been incorrectly labelled as a Debonair. Mine doesn’t have the top roof rack but has the rail underneath. " He hasn't had a reply on that thread. So this is the Debonair-style body I was thinking of, but in a minibus format. Which may have been badged Utilabus?? |

Found as Martin Walter advert 12-seater PSV (edit 2: small image size replaced with slightly larger more legible one). No model name that I can find but Dormobile Debonair based I think... ![]() edit: I think it says "the new Dormobile PSV" in the text. edit 2: New in February 1966 and 'Dormobile' as shown associated only with Bedford but Ford and BMC available. -- Last edit: 2017-07-17 18:52:40 |
