Good project. My experience tells me the next thing you need to do is build a shed in the garden although negotiations with the missus can be quite taxing!

Fitted with a Bedford "300" petrol engine I presume. Parts for this really should not be a huge problem. An interesting survivor though as J5 commercials are thin on the ground in the UK these days. Probably most (J5) which are extant are Fire Appliances. Across the world of course there are loads of J/TJ s still in use. The last TJ2 CKD (kit) chasiss were exported to Kenya in 1999.
