Originally ran in Ettalong, Umina, Booker Bay, Woy Woy etc MO 5951. Originally built by Commonwealth Engineering/Waddingtons for Eric Riley of Ettalong NSW in 1947, then upon his passing it moved on to Richter Bros of Umina 1953, then after that it was sold to Green Point Baptist Church for our vibrant Youth Fellowship Bus in the 1960s (My father often drove their buses) then she went to Roberts Brisbane water Coaches. Then was converted to a Motor Home and based down the Coast around Batemans Bay. Where we purchased our "old friend", so now she lives in country NSW Northern Tablelands. R.E.O. are the initials of 'Ransom Eli Olds' of Oldsmobile fame in the USA! He left Oldsmobile to make his own line of Ultimate/ Premium vehicles which he was feeling held back with in the old Business at that stage. REOs were known as "Americas Toughest Trucks" and led the way for decades, including in Australia! Not many interior pics as had stuff stored in them. Each interior will start to be cleaned out as soon as payment clears for that vehicle. Vehicles are located at our country property in Deepwater NSW 2371 near GLEN INNES just off the beautiful New England Highway. (We are in the QLD border covid safe zone) ** INSPECTIONS, PICK-UPS ETC BY APPOINTMENT ONLY! ** Best TRANSPORT for you to arrange for vehicles is a low loader etc. (We can provide some good heavy transport company details if needed) For example a local one here often charges $5.50 per Kilometre total (charged 1 way only to deliver) which includes everything. Or you can often arrange a backload with a company at a bargain price.
