I have the 25hp KDS motor out of that 51, I believe it is now running a 1776 with a Dick Landy Supercharger (DLI) |

Just a thought,
but as these two 'new' RHD buses are the only ones built before the introduction of the two rear reflectors. Would there single reflector and recess still be on the drivers side? The opposite to all other buses. |

We have started work on the 52, We spent a few days making sure it didn't fall apart? The new roof is ready to go on now and then we can start work on the chassis, I will post pic's of the progress. |

Anybody know what happened to the other 52 RHD in Sweden? _________________ 64 356 C Coupe |

A new RHD barndoor is found in Sweden.
Hopefully we will get the VIN nr soon.
