The attached photographs I made in the late 60's and early 70's may be of interest to your members.
In 1966 GVB of Amsterdam bought six Leyland Panthers (nrs. 295 - 300) with Dutch Hainje bodywork. In fact they were not original Panthers because only parts were used by Dutch chassisbuilder Werkspoor.
The official name of the type was Leyland-Triumph-Werkspoor, but they had the Panther badge on the front (299 lost it after an accident).
In 1977 the whole batch was sold to a scrapyard in Soest and they were all broken up.
