Before these go back on I will be rewelding the large triangular piece that has been cut out of this. The other one is the same.

Where to start with these.
The 2 front bumper brackets have seen better days.
Quite a bit of work to get them back to what they once were!


Norman Julian 30th May
These were a real mess.
Very dirty job cleaning this up and cutting the old mangled fronts off.
Some patina was left to show her age.



Fred Holland
Great job Norm.

Norman Julian what I’m going say may sound strange to some I’m of the opinion this restored bus could last another 90 /100 years
This bus would have to be a special out standing example of these Australian built pre war Double Deckers
Those of us who don’t see it this way let’s wait and give time for an outcome
Norman Julian
Charles Shipway I think you are getting this bus mixed up with the TD5, but nice to say in any case!
