D. Coaches ( D. Davis ) . Morriston , Swansea , South Wales . OLM491E . Morriston Garage Yard . Sunday morning 28th-March-1976 .

            Bedford VAM14. - MCW Metropolitan C45F ( Rebuilt with a Plaxton Panorama front ) .

New to Margo , London SE19 . I regret I do not know when it joined this fleet , or when the re-build happened 

At the Operator's garage yard at Morriston , Swansea , South Wales . 

Sunday morning 28th-March-1976 .

 A rare bird was the "Metropolitan" Coach body . in that only 50 were built on Bedford or Ford chassis  . MCW produced the first 33 , then Strachan took over ( were persuaded ) to build another 17 .
This one is of course even more rare , as it was subsequently fitted with a new Plaxton Panorama front end ! ( Can you see the join ? )
