One of the main issues of owning a vintage bus is storage, my aim to purchas a vehicle or vehicles has been hampered by this. It would be sad to see any vintage bus either restored or unrestored go for scrap but there seem to be a lot of buses being put up for sale in recent years. Perhaps the owners have not got the time ,money or facilities to do the bus justice.
Hopefully some of the buses listed will have a long and secure future.
