Alexander ◊ 2006-11-05 01:31	I would say the bus is a Bristol Lodekka, the truck is definitely a Scammell Explorer, and in between possibly an Austin FV1801A 'Champ'.

SteveA ◊ 2006-11-15 01:33	Definitely not a Bristol Lodekka. At first I thought it was an AEC Regent V, then maybe a Guy Arab IV or V - do we know where the showground is?
sixcyl ◊ 2006-11-16 23:55	I would agree with SteveA, and I think it is an AEC Regent V with Metro-Cammell body of 1959-64. have look of this one from Bradford
