The superb restoration of 1949 Colchester Daimler CVD6 with Roberts bodywork was completed in 1999. OHK 432 was a popular choice when used on the shuttle service between the Rally Site and the Sheffield Bus Museum. We are indebted to Mr J. Darwent for reminding us of the details of this vehicle which can be seen at Lincoln Vintage Vehicle Museum.
