One of the most beautiful things about the classic bus community is the amount of collections that are looked after by volunteers. People who have so much passion for the vehicles and organisations that mean something to them, so much so they give up their valuable time to be a part of it, work and help. Isn’t that beautiful?

Where do you volunteer?

This morning David tagged us in a post and it has prompted us to say thank you to you. Thank you David 😎

To everyone who follows our page that isn’t specifically into buses at all, thank you, we adore you for being here. You are the real reason we started our page years ago 🖤

To the tiny percentage of you who are from the “bus world” of the 39k, thank you for sharing your passion for the vehicles on this page and supporting us out there in the world too. We see and take note of every single one of you who has continued to support our work and mission 💫

Much love, Team Revivist ###

Summer fun. Riding on board Oxford Bus Museum’s AEC Regent III, PWL 413 fixated on John’s T792, AEC Regal III 😍 Its a glorious AEC chorus mixed with the breeze from the platform of PWL 👌

THE REVIVIST: Classic Vehicle Restoration & Fine Coach Painting

Founded by Ashley and Kirstin, The Revivist is a classic vehicle restoration and fine coach painting business based in Yorkshire.

The business specialises in the restoration and traditional coach painting of classic buses and coaches in the main, championing traditional craftsmanship. Assistance can also be given with mechanics & servicing, electrical work, fitting varnish transfers and partial restoration and repair work.

The business is based in Yorkshire but Ashley will travel nationwide working on site at museums and locations with private collections.

With showstopper standards, attention to detail, extensive knowledge, useful contacts, a passion for authenticity preserving heritage vehicles as they should be, a love of fresh chrome and dressed tyres and not forgetting that shiny coach paint finish, you wouldn't want your classic driving on anything other than a red carpet after The Revivist restoration treatment. OK well maybe a red carpet isn’t practical but that is the aim.
