History: Sold by NZRRS on 29 Nov 1957. Used as a Movan. Peter Berry bought the bus late 1980s. Had not run for 2 years. Hand painted (blue with white bumper), new tyres and battery and it wne. Driven from Christchurch to Dannevirke, with the only problem being a fuel blockage at Kaikoura. Still to be restored.
