OUR CURRENT RESTORATION PROJECTS
Whilst all our vehicles require on going support, this page is dedicated to projects returning buses from as acquired condition back into a road worthy and show condition.
EASTERN NATIONAL 1126 - A695 OHJ Leyland/Alexander Tiger
Work has now commenced on this vehicle and we will have some updates on how 1126 is progressing over the coming weeks ( Unfortunately, due to recent events all work on 1126 has been postponed to 2021 )
EASTERN NATIONAL 1898 - DAR120T Leyland National
As of this time last year 1898 engine fail which meant a new engine was needed for 1898. This took around 3 months to change the engine along with some other minor work such as fitting some new seat cushions, making 1898 look more NBC. Luckily 1898 passed its MOT and attended some rallies late 2019.
EASTERN NATIONAL 1937 - STW 18W Leyland National 2
Work has been started on 1937's bodywork.
UNITED COUNTIES 882 - XNV 882R Bristol/ECW VR (Series 2)
Work has started on 882's paintwork
LONDON COUNTRY SNB449 - YPL 449T Leyland National (Series B)
Extensive re-panelling and bodywork repairs were started in 2014 and will be completed this year prior to repainting
UNITED COUNTIES 524 - SBD 524R Leyland National
The number of other projects and space/storage constraints means that 524 will be used as our office and crew room for the foreseeable future, the internal layout was modified by the previous user and currently fits our requirements.
