A superb line up of half cab deckers at SHOWBUS, headed by Eastbourne AEC Regent V 69, followed by Lowestoft AEC Regent III 21 with locally built ECW bodywork, Northampton Daimler CVG6 246, Southampton AEC Regent V 353, Doncaster AEC Regent III 122 and Wigan Leyland Titan 140. The Doncaster Regent was entered by Tony Peart who has supported SHOWBUS, and many other events nationwide, for many years with 122 and his Yorkshire Pullman Regent. Tony sadly passed away shortly after SHOWBUS and will be much missed on the rally scene.
