Hi

If I see him, I will ask what he knows of/has for sale for you. He has/had 6 modern ish double deckers for sale, though two seem to have gone, also has a few coachs I think.

The sheds are indeed quite tall, although the door has had to be raised!

Cheers

Dave

Only just noticed this one, it is a beaut and only got bid to £230! Reserve not met mind, maybe because it ended on Christmas day? The woodwork at the back would be a big worry, but could be retrieved by someone handy with a saw.

There is a restored one of these in the Technical Museum in Speyer, Germany. Aparently they were stil operated until the early 90's.

Try starting here:

or here:

or: If the wheelbase on your truck is around 14'6", just have Duple build a coach body for it!

I would love to own a small coach.

Fell in love with the Commer at the NEC and particularly like the SWB Duple Bella Vista. The one I remember being operated by our local Cerphilly Greys in the 60s was more chromey than those on Google images but I think I am right about the model.

Just hope that I don't find one or Mrs C will ensure that I am living in it!
