Hi Bedford boys
Welcome to the forum! Its great to have another Kiwi on here,
I think it would be polite to have some names.  You can only stay anonymous for so long, being into carriers, and bedfords, and being a father/son combo severly reduces the slice of the population pie, down to an almost transparent slice. The next thing is that the world should see your vehicles via this site, so you will need to post some pics.( which will help to I.D. you of course) There are some amazing people on here. for an example, I was reading a post from Tony Smith about CMP brakes. In about 20 seconds he made a fog of thirty years disapear. A truly great site with some truly great people. (thanks to Geoff W-B  )

Names
We are Steve and Alex Denby. We've been out of the mv scene for a while, but are slowly getting back into it. Dad (Steve) has restored an MW Bedford and a 3" Mortar Carrier (amongst other mvs), both of which now belong to another forum member. I am currently gathering info on the early Bedford MW "pneumonia wagons", as I wish to build one of these. A friend of ours has alot of MW stuff, but as the shed is filled with my Austin mini restoration at the moment, my MW has to wait!
Apologies for minorly hijacking the thread! haha

You're onto it. Where your sister is standing is just down from the biggest slip in the southern hemisphere, and the valley has filled under her feet(and for a mile or more down the valley)by about 100 feet. (or 30 odd metres for you younger people)
For everyone else, the New Zealand Military Vehicle Collectors Club (NZMVCC) has a rally every year in a different part of the country, at Easter. This years rally was hosted by the Gisborne branch, and these two young people both have parents and grandparents, who are, or have been members of the NZMVCC. Lastly my apologies, for majorly hi-jacking this thread.
