Hey guys,

a link about Redline history.
www.busaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=50

About 1979-80 Denning mono's went to full air suspension - DEN AIR

Some people retrofitted air sus to older models mainly by MCA Motor Coach Aust.
VicCoach - rough riding mechanical swing arm that was fitted to convert single axle to a tag for weight laws

V8Ian - You mean the swimming VIP Denning at Nambucca River, Macksville

The coach industry was good to me for 25 years (Australia wide 4x4 Safari to accommodated tours) but has changed so much in that time. now out of it and a float driver

Regards Jumbo

Geez Jumbo, you weren't a coach capt. were you?? they used to spit the dummy if you said "bring her round in the bus" they'd come round, but, tell you it was a coach, not a bus. ::)
There is a joke about that but I better not post it here, you blokes that were around at the time will know it anyway. ;D

That'd be the one, unless they did it more than once. The steerers really used to sulk when you called 'Copy in the Nambucca River Cruises?' on channel 8. ;D

Dunk, here are a couple of mine, I've bored most the others by putting them up before. I've seen photo's of the Greyhound Ford before, but not the others. These sideloaders belonged to my Grandfather, who had either the first or the second Denning built, Glanville's had the other, my Father ended up owning Glanvilles in the 70's.
