Did you see the front cut off Atkinson coming up for auction still has the Gardener motor radiator etc , it's a 3/4 cab
might be handy for parts if the price is right

Pete - Yes, it is Nestle green under the blue (you can see it in the photo around the radiator.)

Paul - Yes, I did see the front cut off. If it was a bit closer to me, I definitely would have been interested.

The tray on this one is completely rusted out so I'm looking for a replacement. It was 27' long, but 24'-27' would be OK if anyone happens to know of a good secondhand one. Being an Atkinson though if I find one, likely I would have to make some significant changes to fit the chassis width.

Hi Oilman, your projects are progressing well, don't think the financial adviser around here would like me to buy any more projects until I finish what I've still got to do around here. Like the paint style on the Coach parked beside your project, are you local to their area ?
Cheers Tim ;)
