Historic buses

I just played the video clip, you all need to watch it again just to remind yourself how good that really is!

Little River Band did a Film Clipper in Gary Drivers back in '88.
Had forgotten this one till I was reading an '88 edition of The Clipper Clubs' Magazine.



Will also post a couple of Pics of a couple of guys mucking around before a publicity shoot on the front bumper of a Clipper, must have been mid 60's. Once I read-up all the tricks of glueing pics on this page.

Im learning heaps and remembering stuff as well that I had long forgotton thanks fella's

Arguably Australia's best-known bus.
120912W Melbourne 'Herald Sun', Priscilla bus goes to a Broken Hill museum. I suspect that the article is wrong re being used in the stage version too: too many shows around the world, too heavy, too hard to manoeuvre. I haven't seen the film, but have seen a stage version. IIRC the bus is on stage the whole time, facing sideways, with either no side wall, or it opens and closes for different scenes.

My 1946 Ford Jailbar semi-trailer bus that I went to school in many, many years ago.
Built by J.A.Lawton & Sons for Mr Jim Abbott of Abbott's Tours, Victor Harbour SA.
Currently under massive restoration.

Now, that is a ripper! How did the driver manage with that tiny mirror on the offside mudguard?

A close up for the Queen's visit to Adelaide 1954?
Note the small mechanical signal hand.
