WS 4522
WS 4522 H110 A. 1935 SMT Leyland Tiger TS7/Cowieson at Dorchester 14-8-22. During 1930s SMT developed a distinctive rear-entrance, single deck body style with sunshine roof & large roof mounted luggage rack. Over 270 of these bodies were built on AEC Regal & Leyland Tiger chassis. In 1997 one of these bodies built by Cowieson of Glasgow was discovered in Wales in use as a shed. It has subsequently been the subject of a very extensive rebuild & married up to a fully refurbished Leyland Tiger chassis with replacement engine. Restoration completed in 2016 with a full repaint in the blue & white SMT livery of the time. With present owner since 2021. A wonderful job & a good ride!
