If you take a look at this thread you’ll find the story of the restoration of my 1968 Bristol RE, North Western 299A which I completed in 2023.

Well, being a glutton for punishment, I appear to have started a new project - an AEC Reliance with Harrington Grenadier bodywork. It‘s KTC330C which was new to a Greater Manchester independent, Warburton Bros (Bury) Ltd and was a Commercial Motor Show exhibit, then multiple prize winner at the 1965 Brighton and Blackpool coach rallies.

I had it moved to my restoration base today. Wish me luck…

You are indeed a glutton for punishment!

You did a grand job with the RE and I look forward to what you'll do with this project.
