| MAKE | BEDFORD |
| MODEL | OB |
| YEAR | 1950 |

| HISTORY | Delivered new to Gem Coaches of Colsterworth, Lincolnshire. It was purchased in scrap condition in 1987, and having been restored, is with its current owner in mid Wales. It has a Plaxton built body, and this example is thought to be one of only two Plaxton OBs to survive - the other one being EAJ 679 owned by Ray Lockett of Henfield, West Sussex. |
