The Bedford M series of trucks were a series of commercial trucks offered in both cab chassis and simple body chassis, with the first variants being seen on the market since 1939. Their driving system was a four-speed, front-axle drive steering system, with a mechanical steering control on the chassis and a four-wheel drive system designed to carry weights of up to 2-3 tons.
Two main axle spacing versions were offered – 10′ 0″ or 11′ 11″ – and each of these models was equipped with a standard 6-cylinder gasoline engine, with a power of 27.34 horsepower (27 HP). Coupled to this was a 4-speed gearbox with a dry clutch, and a power brake system attached to the rear axle, which operated a floating system with a spiral conical disc at the end. The brakes were hydraulic and operated by a Lockheed four-wheel assisted servo system.
