1958 Bedford Dormobile. Does anyone know how many left side drive were made for the U.S.?? Any and all information that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. Want to know the approx.value.

I don't know about the USA,but the Dutch post office had a fleet of hundreds of them.All left hand drive,of course.Bedfords were also quite popular in Belgium,moreso the trucks.
Perhaps your camper is a fugitive from those areas.Value is entirely dependent on condition,and who's buying.A real Bedford nut might be hard to find in the USA,though.

Interesting thought: GM produced close cousins of most European models in the US. Was a CA Bedford variant built there??

Not in those days they didn't!

The (what we called) Chevette of 1975 was GM's first 'world car' built by Opel, Chevrolet, vauxhall, etc.
