Get an eyeful of this Bedford! (I've just learned it's not on the island of Malta, but the next close island, Gozo)

this image was photoshopped into a Batmobile... which is interesting http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2013/09/photoshop-can-create-some-cool-cars-or.html

Commentary on Jalopnik has most people noticing it is Maltese, and for more oddball custom buses in the same "Almost" american 50's style: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/isolation-in-remote-islands-keeps-old.html and the license plate matches a Maltese, confirming the commentors who instantly recognized that it was related to the Maltese buses,


For a separate look at the buses and small trucks that look odd to me, use Google Chrome (love it) to translate for you and read

    1. And I have been waiting years to understand what the word "Gozitan" means, and finally, I learn that Gozo is an island near Malta, and that your 2 word comment meant that this is found on Gozo the island. Please, use more words next time. Communication is important!
