Roland this is a V6 614 motor & gear box out of a Clipper bus. A 714 is very similar to look at. Injector pump in the valley -air covers each side. The motor in that bus is a perkins.
It would be a great bus with a V6 714 Deutz motor same as the clipper bus site phot no 5 with the red strip over it.

This one is from my regular contributor Dave Menzies. It shows an Ansett Roadways Flxible Clipper in the 1970s.

Here the last two which I have posted in other threads before.
I have an unscanned photo of one at Mt Beauty, advertising a ski-hire established. I can't find it fast.
I travelled in one in Tasmania in Jan.72, Zeehan - Strahan, but didn't photograph it.

Copied across from the wedding cars & limousines thread; it is a link to the company's website.

How amazing, one could just hire them for a few hours and have a great time cruising in a Flxible!
