This bus chassis was produced by Leyland Redline, the name applied to the BMC trucks after the formation of British Leyland. It was developed from the Terrier truck chassis which sold in moderate numbers in New Zealand. Ironically by the time the Cub was marketed in New Zealand the T45 had replaced the Terrier truck. 5.7 litre diesel engine, 4350mm wheelbase
