That looks a lovely deep finish on that chassis, do people still use coach paint or are we into something more modern?

I thought that was the final update for AEC the grille was on earlier Leylands they must have had some left over and dumped them at Southall, i remember a few tankers with that grille and the AEC letters at the top as opposed to the bottom

Hiya ramone. your right. a good pal of mine had a aec mandator (nbf??p) she was one of the last 6 aec’s
to be completed that day, all aec’s built after that was fitted with the aluminum grill instead of the chrome one.
they also had the leyland motif on the hubcaps. that aluminum grill was like on the leyland buffalo/lynx and ergo super comet.
