Excellent- More about Australian Buses and Coaches
This book offers a chronological view of buses in Australia, from the oldest color images to the latest buses. It mainly focuses on buses, although many Australian-built chassis were used for coach operations. Before the Second World War, buses were mainly of British origin with local bodywork. During the 1970s, the European invasion rose to its heights, and they make up the bulk of the modern chassis. Australia was influenced by many chassis manufacturers from Japan, Korea, the USA, New Zealand, and Canada. Body builders were present in every state and had a diverse product range.
