Description

The Bedford MW was a general service truck manufactured by Bedford for use by the British Armed Forces during the Second World War.

The Bedford MW was a 15 cwt (760 kg) load capacity 4×2 truck, powered by a Bedford 72 bhp (54 kW) six-cylinder inline 210 cu in (3.5 L) petrol engine through a four speed transmission.

Despite lacking four wheel drive and so being unsuited for off-road use, the MW’s powerful engine, short wheel base, low centre of gravity and relatively light weight gave it excellent acceleration and « almost sports car like handling ».

The early MWs were open cabbed with individual folding windscreens (« aeroscreens »), canvas doors and a collapsible canvas tilt. A full windscreen and steel doors were fitted on later vehicles but the cab remained open. From 1943 an enclosed cab with doors and perspex side screens was added, retaining the canvas top. The vehicle had a distinctive wide bonnet, necessitated by the need to accommodate a special extra large WD air filter that was never fitted to production vehicles.
