Product information
Full publisher description
For seventy years, Duple was one of the two best-known names in coachbuilding in Britain. Formed in Hornsey, London, in 1919 before moving north to Blackpool, Duple grew to be one of the most popular suppliers of luxury coach bodies for the UK market. Decline in new vehicle sales in the late 1980s saw Duple's fortunes start to fade and the company closed its doors for the final time in 1989.
Covering a period of approximately ten years from 1972, this book gives an overview of the popular Dominant body range together with its high-floor counterpart, the Goldliner. With a brief description of each body type and 180 photographs, all in colour and with informative captions, it showcases Duple's finest products in their operating heyday.
