Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

■ In the early 1960 s, when sales of the VW Transporter T1 were gradually improving, Ford had a plan to compete with the bestseller.
Ford factories in Germany and the United Kingdom decided to jointly develop a version that could compete with VW.
Eventually, the project resulted in an entirely new van that was born in 1965.
The Ford Transit Mk1 became a bestseller on the Delivery Van in the United Kingdom.
With the success in the United Kingdom, the Transit Mk1 was accepted by Dormofville, the most famous camp outsider in the United Kingdom.
The "Side Elevation Roof" was named by Keystone's factory as its folding roof and was originally intended to be attached only to the Bedford van.
With the installation of the folding roof, the factory also undertook modifications to the interior of the car.
Four seats, two beds, and storage space characterized subsequent Bedford camping cars.
From 1961, the Dormofville, a camping car based on the Volkswagen Bus, was also launched.
In 1970, the Folkstone-based Ford Transit Mk1 was added to the line-up.
The top-of-the-line equipment included sinks, gas stoves, rear window curtains on the tailgate, wardrobe, two beds attached to the roof, opening skylights, and a cupboard for a refrigerator.
