"Recovering Seats - Part 2" |
|
| |
| It has been arranged this evening to visit a yard in Livingston to obtain the seats from former Fife Scottish Leyland Leopard FPE186 (PSX186Y) which was in the process of being scrapped. The vehicle was already in a canibalised condition, but the seats were complete. The upholestry will be used to re-trim the seats on D23. An electrical relay was also obtained from FPE186 to replace the faulty one in D23, along with fuses which will replace the missing ones in D23. |
