This time on Pete And His Bus I drive a lovely early MGB. I also do a load of work on my own cars, I make a big mistake and something very nice and shiny turns up at the barn. For the events mentioned in this video please check out:

About Pete And His Bus: Pete is a normal (ish) guy who has a big passion for old vehicles and particularly old buses. He is NOT a trained mechanic nor is he a professional restorer. He enjoys converting vehicles but he can not promise that what he is doing is going to work on your vehicle. Nor can he promise that you won’t harm yourself if you were you to attempt the things he does. He recommends that you are safe and responsible with machinery and equipment even if you’ve seen him messing about with it. A workshop and it’s content can be a dangerous place. If you are in doubt about your own vehicle, contact a professional for advice.

If I had quid for every time I've done something like that! You could put an inline pair of 32a connectors in your hookup cable with the latching lid removed from the female so that it would disconnect if you forget again.

Always wondered what Roger Wright has hidden away, I live just up the road from Onagr Station so regularly see different members of the beautifully kept fleet. Assume he ran 1009 with Blue Triangle? His railway, the Epping Ongar Railway is well worth a visit especially on Diesel Gala weekend!

Well worth waiting for! So glad that RM1009 has not been robbed of its plate by some knob- bonce Porsche driver. She looks to have been kept in very original condition, not a candidate for a bar conversion, surely? Happy to see some work on the 240 Jaguar, and hoping to get to East Grinstead on 21st April. Keep it up!

Nice to see it with an AEC AV 590 engine. Simply the best fitted to RMs in my opinion. RM 1009 has a very interesting history. It was the third Routemaster fitted with a Leyland engine and not only it worked the 207 group and the 255 out of Hanwell garage, this bus also operated on Route 97 Brentford- Ruislip Station and probably the Summer Sunday extension to Ruislip Lido. The bus was then transferred to Cricklewood garage in March 1963 as I researched for there were more Leyland powered RMs allocated to that garage. Well, nice to see the bus upload onto You Tube.

Correction: When I stated RM 1009 was the third Routemaster fitted with a Leyland engine I forgot about RML3 and CRL4. What should have been stated was that RM 1009 is the third production Park Royal bodied Routemaster fitted with a Leyland engine and from what I researched Leyland engined RMs were hitting the streets of London from December 1962 onwards from Tottenham, Mortlake, Crickclewood , Stockwell, and by 1963 the 36 group.

Great memories wish I could be back for the rally it's a long way from Australia, keep up the good work best wishes Ron.

Great episode Pete .. glad you got the Landie & your Jag back on the road & the the roof for your MGB looks good too! Well that was a silly thing to do .. gives a whole new perspective on an electric bus .. lol 😊. As for Richard’s purchase .. RM1009 looks lovely … will try to get down to East Grinsted in April. Perhaps you both will get to do one of the Amersham & District Motorbus Society’s Running Days (maybe in 2025 if you are both too busy this year!). Wow that workshop had so many wonderful buses .. I spotted the Dual Purpose Leyland National in one clip .. but also several of these London Country RF308 (was owned by Peter Legg at one time) & Atlantean AN264 have both been in service at several A&D running days in the past.

Ah, the famous Land Rover third-party parts lottery at 10:55. Might be great! Might be not even slightly the correct part and it's clear nobody has ever tried to fit one! Maybe less of a lottery and more like sticking your hand in a pack of Liquorice Allsorts; there's a 1 in 2 chance you'll end up with something you don't want. Oh well, it worked out in the end and that's a lovely Land Rover. :D Great vid!

Nice to see 1009 again as I remember her, hope all the traces of my conductor's blood has gone from the platform, he got set upon late at night, thought he was still upstairs when it all kicked off as he rang me off from the previous stop by tapping on the blind box. He was not the type to normally intervene in a fight, just give me 3 bells followed by another 3.

Oops about the shore supply lead. And double oops with the continuity error, after you put the "23" stickers over the destination blinds, then at 5:16 we see 2355 roll out of the barn without them, and the "38" destination visible. May I suggest you take a leaf from the railways and have some kind of "NOT TO BE MOVED" board on the steering wheel that you don't remove until all checks (including disconnection of shore supply (or "barn supply")) have been completed?

This was worth the wait. 12:00 -12;13 🤣🤣 That restored normal length RM withdrawn (ie not molested) in 87 was worth every penny. Fantastic. Hopefully Tim won't need to be kept on speed dial lol. Make sure all fluids are on point and no hemorrhaging occurs. We don't want death by bleeding! What a foam inducing collection in there, particularly the single deck Merlin and Red Arrow National 2.

Rm 1009 looks brilliant Pete you should feature it in a video of its own as I would certainly be watching that and are you going to Routemaster 70th this year.

Just an idea! Could you not fit an LED light inside the cockpit of the bus so I'd the mains are connected the light is illuminated that way you'd always know if that's an issue (would be a lot of cable for a small light but would save the issue again)

I don't know if you have them in the UK, but here in the colonies, we have auto-mains-plug ejecting sockets. When the plugged in vehicle is started, the plug auto ejects and this kind of thing wont happen. I know it's never happened before, and maybe it would be uneconomical, but it may be worth looking into for you.

I'm sure they have them here for ambulances and fire appliances, I expect they're prohibitively expensive unless you can find one on a retired emergency vehicle

@dg2908 depends on how much you plan on spending on Sir Sparksalot over the years, I suppose. (I am guessing SSaL is a friend and - on top of the price of the bits - only cost a beer or two.

Great video as usual Pete 😉🤜🤛 Glad you managed to get all of your cars fixed. How much does it cost you to fill your bus up with Diesel? I've always wondered how much they take It amazed me just how many classic buses the London Bus Company had, it's so sad to see such beautiful vehicles sitting unloved and rotting, but thankfully we have Amazing people like yourself and Richard who restore them to their former glory and give them the love they deserve. Was the company that is no longer operating and Richard got his previous bus from Routemaster 4 Hire? RM1009 is beautiful, I bet Richard is well chuffed with her, I wish him all the best in restoring her, whatever needs doing that is ☺️

130 litre tank. The company was This Bus. 👍👍

@bikerguychris33 5 месяцев назад
@@PeteAndHisBus Aw Wow, that's a monster of a tank at 130 litres 😂, that must cost you nearly 200 quid a time to fill your bus with diesel at Current prices. What kind of range does a full tank give you? I know it'll depend on the engine that's in your bus, I'm guessing the Cummins engine probably gives you a bit better MPG than the retro AEC one does, but I might be wrong. I love the sound of both engines but there's nothing quite like the sound of a 6 cylinder classic AEC, they just sound beautiful don't they 👍 Have you ever driven a bus with a manual gearbox, if so, did you enjoy it pal?
