Details: Ford Transit 2325F (CGT325X) was one of the last batch of 'normal' Transit vans to be numbered in the owned series. Delivered in August 1981 it was sold to Allco Passenger Vehicles in March 1985 after a few months storage at AEC Southall. Although Allco acted as vehicle dealers, this van was evidently kept for their own use and it was photographed at the Vickers Works Sandpit in Weybridge on 14th April 1985 (during a Cobham Bus Museum open day). It retained London Transport lettering with the addition of Leaside and Forest District stickers and an Allco fleetname. Most notably however it had been fitted with a cut-down radiator grille from a Routemaster bus! This was perhaps the same grille later carried by ex-2086F.
