Rick Clark has a '54 RHD Double Door Panel. I'm sure an older one must exist but that is just one to put up on the score board.

Checked on www.barndoor.dk.The chassis number 20-077910 looks as though it is the earliest that is registered on that site.
This bus was one of the first delivery into New Zealand in March 1954 and still exists,and is slated for a long term resto.
Anyone got an earlier one?

RHD stands for Right Hand Drive, not Real Hardly Driven.

Albert from The Cool VW has got a 52 DD panel , but i don`t know if it`s a RHD.

He importerd the bus from Norway or Sweden in 1999 , i think.

Albert's 52 is a DD LHD Panel. I seen it in person and pictures of it. Albert also has a bad ass cat, Arthur, which will kick any dogs ass!!! He's a straight soccer Hooligan!! Linda, you'd like this kid!

Dean - Are you having a bubble? Cuz everyone knows the oldest RHD is in San Diego!! RHD = Rarely Hardly Driven.

Linda probably had a giraffe on Graham's expense by telling him that he is considering selling off his RHD Panel, which is the oldest one in around. REALLY. BTW.......your Panel is looking BAD ASS!!!!!!!! Very Happy
