Summary edit
| Description |
Ron Hooks had a fleet of green coaches based at Great Oakley, near Harwich. It seems that Staines Crusader had taken over the business by 1978 and painted vehicles into the white and black livery of the parent company in Clacton-on-Sea with similar fleet name treatment.This Ford R226 with Plaxton bodywork needed little repainting as it had come from the cream and black fleet of Jack Crump of Iver. It may even have starred in the odd Pinewood Studios film. In between it had been in the fleet of E. Kirby of Rayleigh. The Hooks coach operation was eventually gathered up together with Pilbeam's Harwich & Dovercourt Coaches into Chartercoach. |
