The main UK model was listed as 21.7HP, several body styles, 1924-27, withe Buick as 25/75, 1927-30.

Agreed it was the progenitor of the design, but the Bedford always had pressure fed lubrication whereas the Chevrolet used splash, leading to an inferior product. The Bedford’s first year of production was 1931 and the subject vehicle is not a Bedford, it’s a Chevrolet. Information from “The Automobile” Volume 8 No. 3. -- Last edit: 2023-02-01 09:24:08
