    Tartan Bus


    This 1978 Bristol VRT open topper was used as mobile headquarters for "The Tartan Army" sponsored by the Daily Record newspaper during the 1998 FIFA Soccer World Cup, held in France, painted in all over tartan livery.
    It has now been restored to this 1998 colour scheme at the Scottish Vintage Bus Museum, near Dunfermline in Fife.
    Regional Director for Scotland for Clan Cunningham International, and a Scottish Armiger.

    I know less about football than I do about NFL football, but that is one cool bus! I hope they take it to Brazil.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
