Sentinel STC6
What is your favourite car of all time?
When the dimensions regulations were relaxed to allow 30ft vehicles, Sentinel introduced their STC6 integral bus. It used a six-cylinder 9.12-litre 135bhp indirect injection engine, with a four-speed constant-mesh gearbox. The well known firm of Ribble was the most significant customer for the Sentinel STC6, acquiring 14 44-seat models built in 1951, despite the fact that the Olympic was now available from their usual supplier Leyland. Acquired by Rolls-Royce in 1955, Sentinel stopped production of coaches and buses in 1956, in total they had only produced around 130 buses for the domestic market.
