Manufacturer description

The Bedford CA Van, first introduced in 1952 was manufactured at the Bedford plant in Luton right up until 1969. This little pug-nosed light utility van served in a multitude of roles and here we see it as a Minibus as used by British European Airways, decorated in bright blue with white roof and a black band running along the centre of the body. Registered 7729 ML, the model carries the BEA logo in white on a red background on both the front and rear doors.
