This beautifully restored Bedford MW currently resides in Milton Keynes Museum. And it's had quite a history. Built in 1944, for use in World War 2, it was eventually sold off for private use. First registered as a private vehicle in 1949, it was converted to a drop side truck by Arlington. It was owned by the Co-operative Society Creamery in Birmingham, collecting milk from surrounding farms. It was rescued from a scrapyard in 1972, sporting the red Co-op livery that informed this restoration.
