Invicta Black Prince ?
Yes it is, that's the easy part though.
Do you know who was responsible for the coachwork?

Yes but you have the coachbuilder slightly wrong.
It's Associated Coach........ (not Coachcraft)
Locked for you.

Yes it is the firm from Sunderland but as I said it is not Associated Coachcraft but Associated Coach........!
If it helps the company were well known for their production of bus bodies and were often known by their shortened name of ACB.
Still locked for you.

ACB would be Associated Coach Builders, obviously. The funny thing is that all books on woodies come up with coachcraft, so they probably all copied the mistake from the same source? You are sure, no doubt...

Yes of course.
It's a great shame that a simple mistake can be perpetuated on many sites.
Perhaps they should refer to AutoPuzzles for the truth!
