Mainly born to find more "British" looking double deckers once the Regent supply began to dry up Wikipeida wrote Bristol Lodekkas were highly popular export vehicles for non-passenger-carrying use across Continental Europe and North America, with imports to the United States commencing in the late 1970s after the supply of genuine ex-London Transport AEC Regent III RTs had been exhausted; differing height regulations in several US states mean that only low-height double-deckers can be legally driven on public roads -- Last edit: 2025-10-23 21:51:31
