Hebble 84, 450FXX, an AEC Reliance 4U3RA with Duple (Northern) Dragonfly C49C body, new to Samuelson New Transport in 1963 and acquired by Hebble in June 1969.
One of four (82-85, 448-451FXX) acquired from Samuelson, the other three were repainted in Hebble livery before entering service but this one arrived slightly afterwards and was presed into use - as seen here - still in its previous livery, though it was repainted shortly afterwards.
It was withdrawn and sold to North's (dealer), Sherburn-in-Elmet in 5/70, passing to Marshall, Blackpool 6/70; Elsworth, Blackpool 2/71 to 9/71; Worrall's Removal & Coach Hire, West Croydon 2/72; Payne, Croydon 3/73 to 3/74.
