Manufacturer description

The Beadle Integral was an example of a rebodied vehicle from J C Beadle of Dartford, Kent, who specialised in buying out-of-service vehicles, updating and incorporating new bodywork before selling them on to coach operators.

Our pale cream and green coach is registered DKP 980 and carries the destination Continental EX, which conjures up all sorts of exotic venues. Passenger seating is in green to match the masked green exterior. The waistband is finished in silver and green above the Maidstone & District logo printed in gold on the sides. The name is similarly printed across the rear. Green masking to the roof, wheels and wheel arches complete the fresh look.
