When I went to school, I used to be able to tell which bus (from a mixed fleet of early 60's to late 70's busses) was on my run when it was a couple of stops away by the different exhaust notes. (Beachmere Bus Lines in the 1980's)Quote:
I must be getting old, when I went to school any kid could recognise a
HoldenRed / Holden Grey/ Slant 6/ Hemi or Falcon engine from 100 yards in a
moving school bus, I couldn't imagine anyone would not know a holden red just by looking.
I have a red motor (186) that has the engine no starting with a V and ending with a P (V******P) which I am told is a number issued by Victoria Police. Vicroads tell me it was originally in a 1969 Holden sedan.
I am not sure why it has this number! I can only assume the same guy who stamped one or two donks twice with same number may have missed stamping this one!
Can you throw any light on it Brian?
Cheers, Mick.
