Sunbar ◊ 2019-03-11 12:23	1959-1961 Duple Super Vega body, I believe from recent discussions, (FS60 7'6" wide FS60/1 8' wide) Two-piece windscreen with front quarter-lites SB3 chassis 1958-1987 with Bedford petrol 4.9 litre engine I think it quite possible XNB781 looks like two digits from a distance with the '1' merging with the other digits.
