Classic Guy Arab Mk4 East Kent Bus 1952, 1953, 1954, 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958


In 1940 the Ministry of Supply contracted Guy Motors to produce a double-decker to utility specification, the result being the Arab Mk I of which 500 were built. As a rugged, unsophisticated chassis, the Arab placed the Guy among the country's leading bus manufacturers. East Kent built up a fleet of Mk 4s Arabs with Park Royal bodywork between 1952 and 1958. The bus shown is a one-off prototype dating from 1952, which had bodywork built by Guy.
