7 litre Perkins engine built by AEC? It's an AEC AV590 of 9.6 litre swept volume. AEC was originally part of the London General Omnibus Company (LGOC), who had built there own buses, but the bus building side was seperated to become the Associated Equipment Company (AEC). I used to drive these in London until 1988, and used to enjoy throwing the numbnuts on roller skates off, when speeding around the 90 degree bend at Mornington Crescent on routes 24 and 29 !!

It is my personal fantasy to convert one (to a liveaboard) and to embark on a "discovery" tour (w/no time limit.) By the way, they were not so expensive to bring over and most were simply placed upon a container ship, right along with containers. Few thousand dollars maybe but certainly not GB20,000 :) Lovely bus.

Don't forget that it was a two man operated bus.. There was a conductor that collected the fares from the passengers while the bus was moving from stop to stop. The great fun and skill was to depart and alight while the bus was moving and/or between official pick up stops.Also holding on the rear pole and wearing roller skates was frowned upon.

Yes and getting down from the second level whilst the bus was moving was a skill that I didn't have. If you screw up, off you go!
