Quotation letter from Leyland Motors Ltd for bus chassis and bodies to Central SMT, 1948

As part of the nationalisation of the SMT Group bus companies in 1948 account had to be made of the value of the bus fleets and one way of doing this was to check as to the replacement value of the buses. These letters are from various bus builders back to Central SMT in response and giving details of current chassis and prices. This is from the famous Leyland Motors, of Leyland in Lancashire, via the Glasgow sales office. It is a quotation work sheet for the popular Leyland Tiger PS1 chassis which, with delivery to Stirling (for bodying by Alexanders) would come in at £1640 5/ 6d.
