The Ranger chassis being supplied
only in LHD (Left Hand Drive) was intended for export and this PRV
bodied version (Body No. B37293) was a "one off" body design
built for the 1954 Trade Fair in Baghdad. This regular event in (pre Saddam)
Iraq, usually featured a couple of buses sometimes built to order but at other
times speculative.
(My father was asked on occasion to attend these
trade fairs but he didn't like traveling much so he declined.)
PRV built an huge number of buses for PTS Baghdad (Iraq) the first on the AEC Regent V chassis between 1958 and 1967 and the rest on Leyland Atlantean chassis between 1975 and 1980 (including the last two buses completed before closure of the PRV factory in 1980; admittedly being replacements for damaged buses). This, along with 35 Regal III's for other operators, totalled some 728 buses; only eclipsed by the 900 buses ordered, by Iran. That made Iraq Park Royal's second-most important overseas buyer.
