The Bedford J1 is a replica of the vehicle used in the mid 1960s by the Hertfordshire Fire & Ambulance Brigade and registered RAR 390D. In unpainted aluminium and cream, the Hertfordshire Ambulance crest features on both sides and the Ambulance lettering appears across the back doors in red out of cream. The detailed silver masking brings further realism to this little model, which is finished off with a roof beacon, as well as a bell and spotlight on the grille. In real life, the Bedford J1 was built in large numbers and saw service with many authorities from the early 1950s to well into the 1970s. The bodywork was named after its designer Herbert Lomas and the vehicles proved very efficient.
