This print captures a snapshot of life in West Burton, Nottinghamshire, back in 1964. Parked on a bustling building site stands a Bedford CA Minibus, proudly belonging to Bierrum Civil Engineers. The iconic CA model is often regarded as the precursor to today's multi-purpose vehicles like the Renault Espace. With its versatile design and renowned Dormobile conversion, the Bedford CA found itself utilized in various settings - from commercial ventures to domestic adventures. This particular minibus showcases its adaptability as it rests amidst the construction industry's hustle and bustle. The image exudes an air of nostalgia for mid-20th century Britain.

In the background, towering cranes stand tall against the English countryside backdrop, symbolizing progress and growth.

It serves as a testament to how road transport has evolved over time while reminding us of our rich heritage.
