FoKAB’s Olympic Challenge - Special Appeal for 708

The restoration of our 1950 Leyland Olympic bus is a major project for FoKAB, as 708 is the only known remaining King Alfred bus that has not yet been restored by us and is a significant part of Hampshire’s transport heritage. The replacement of much the framing was completed by Friday, 2nd March 2007 and the bus returned to Winchester the following day. Please visit the Olympic Project page for details of FoKAB's appeal for financial help in the restoration of this unique bus.
