Bristol JO5G / BBW. New in 1934 as a petrol engined coach, it was rebuilt during WW2 with a BBW body. So its the preverbial old broom with new handle and new brush. Its rumoured that an axle cross member is original!! This rebuilding process was a good way for BOC to get newbuses when new construction wasn't permitted. No matter though, its restoration is excellent and looks great here outside the Bristol Industrial Museum.
