Kit No. WIL 5: AEC Regal lll Willowbrook Single Deck 1948-50
Willowbrook Ltd of
Derby Road Loughborough was registered in 1927 taking over a business based
in Leicester. After the war the proportion of business done with British Electric Traction increased. Along with Brush, Weymann and Roe, bus bodies were built to the familiar BET half cab standard design of the time. |

The kit is based on the design of 1950 and was purchased by: Leyland PS2 (WIL 4) Western Welsh (20), Stratford Blue(2), Oxford (29) Allen of Mountsorrel AEC Regal III (WIL 5) Oxford (29) South Wales(?) |

A DP version was also produced and these had a moulding flash on each side and a single or divided rear window with the emergency exit at the off side front. Operators were Hebble, Stratford Blue, Oxford (with bus style emergency layout), and Trent Yorkshire Woollen also had OPD 2 and PS2 bus type but these were 8` wide. They were the very last of the half cabs as the underfloor chassis was about to be launched which made them soon look dated.
