1951 Bedford SB

This is a photograph that I took at the Greater Manchester Transport Society's Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally in Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1988. It's a 1951 Bedford SB and the programme of the event had this note about it:

 

MPW 455 Bedford SPG, Duple Vega, 1951

Entered by Moseley PSV Preservation Group, Loughborough, Leics. New to Stainsby of Kings Lynn, passing to Birds of Hunstanton on acquisition of the company in the mid 1960s, being operated until 1977. Since passing to the group the vehicle has been extensively refurbished.
