Ford 300e Thames Van – SEGAS

Product Description

The 1948 Gas Act rationalised the gas industry, creating 12 area gas boards including SEGAS, who covered Kent, Middlesex, Surrey, Sussex and London. The van modelled was delivered to SEGAS in 1959 and based at their Rochester depot on Gas House Lane before being sold, after which it was damaged in an accident and put into storage. Its restoration was started in the 1980s by a retired SEGAS transport depot foreman, Tim Bubb, and was completed in 1989 by Mike Scott using paint mixed at his family garage business in the days when they looked after the SEGAS van fleet! Vital statistics: Engine capacity: 1172cc Power: 36bhp@4400rpm Maximum speed: 69mph 0-60 mph: 33.8secs
