This Guy Arab II with Northern Counties war time Utility Body was new in March 1944 to Ribble as fleetnumber 2413, this long term restoration project was kindly donated to Town & District by Ribble Vehicle Preservation Trust in 2019. It was decided by our group that we are going to make use of the bus for our younger members to get their hands stuck into at weekends and get it built back up slowly over the next few years as a slow restoration project. It will be a big task to strip it all down & rebuild it back up, not to mention the parts that are needed to be sourced for it, but as a team we will make it happen, we hope this will be a good opportunity for the younger ones so they have something to be proud of when it’s finished & it will also be good experience so they can learn for the future as bus preservation will be around for many years to come.
