Ok fellas let’s see your pics of your buses out on the open road . Out in the wilderness! At the beach , in the mountains, on the moors in the forest ! I will kick off with a pic of my bus in Scotland last week where it was first delivered in 1954 .
This pic is on the NC 500 Scotland’s Route 66 😀

Well no surprise no posts in here this year so far ! For me personally it’s been my quietest year on the road in the bus , indeed it never left the garage for four consecutive months ! I always endeavour to take the bus out every month of the year in normal times . Anyway after some remedial work at Irvs Restos to the old knackers underpinnings it was off for a 1300 mile jolly to the Scottish Highlands incorporating a good chunk of the NC500.
Anyway here’s the pics anyone else wanna post up there 2020 activity pics fire away !! 👊

https://www.facebook.com/FUKD54/ thanks man 🙏 no real build thread as the bus been on the road at least 25 yrs , I’ve owned it for last 9 it’s a rolling resto if you like , it has work attended to when needed , chassis getting towards needing some lovin but she’s a driver Cool
It’s a UK delivered bus thought to be only 7 of those remaining think only 3 of which are kombis so it’s a rare bird in UK bus circles , there’s a link to a facebook page I got going for it if you got FB .
