What would you like to see preserved?
I often dream of winning the Euro-Lottery, then going out on a buying spree. I'd love to get my hands on...
1) BMMO Fleetline with Alexander H45/30D, of the SHA-G batch,
2) Birmingham City Fleetline with Marshall B37F body. There's one at BAMMOT, but I'd like to see more,
3) Manchester City Atlantean or Fleetline of the LNA-G batch. Someone has preserved 1001 of the HVM-F batch, but it doesn't look as good,
4) Bristol REMH in Western SMT or Eastern Scottish livery,
5) Ex-Standerwick Bristol VRL,
6) Ex-Nottingham C.T. AEC Swift with NCME bodywork (PTO-G registration?)
7) Alexander bodied Leyland Panther, ex-Tyneside PTE or ex-Glasgow C.T.
8) Ex-Liverpool Leyland Panther with MCCW body in ORIGINAL Cream & Green livery,
9) Leyland Panther with Marshall Camair bodywork. There were loads in/around Tyneside with more than one company.
10) A Bristol RELH with ECW coachwork. Mundane, but I always thought they looked stylish.
11) ECW bodied Bristol RELL with FLAT windscreen, and not the awful BET style,
12) Dual-door LH. If my memory serves me right, Hants & Dorset or Wilts & Dorset had some.
What's on your wish-list?

P.S. Also add a BMMO S21 - I THINK someone has got hold of 3 of them for preservation - I hope so. Paint them with a BLACK roof!

Reason: I'm an old f**t, with a failing memory - gimme a break!
