It’s a Wilson pre select gearbox. The “clutch” pedal is a gearchange pedal. You select a gear, depress the pedal and move off. Move selector to next gear and when you’re ready to change depress the pedal to change.

I served my apprenticeship at AEC (Southall) from 1969 to 1976. The “ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT COMPANY” built LONDON’S Buses from 1912 to 1979. This example, the “RT” or “Regent” class of bus had a “Weymanns” body fitted to it’s AEC Chassis. The last of this type of bus finished serving the Capital in 1979. The AEC 6 cylinder Diesel engine was always a great starter in all conditions due to it’s RICARDO performance engineered combustion chambers! The transmission is a WILSON pre-select gearbox and the left hand pedal is an operating pedal, not a clutch, as it has an automatic clutch. Gears are pre-selected and then the operating pedal is pushed to engage that particular gear. You just have to think “one step ahead” always 😇

By the way if it is like a Routemaster the batteries will be in a compartment at the rear under the stairs together with a master cutout switch. Also the gearbox is an air actuated pre-selector. The pedal you thought was the clutch is actually the actuator pedal.

How tall are you guys? The "highbridge" London buses I think have headroom for a 6'2" person to stand fully upright on both decks. They are IIRC 14 feet 6 inches tall. Some other models have a lower top deck, however - the highbridge models can't fit under some bridges, restricting their routes or forcing them to take detours.

The RT has a lot of character, but these can be huge money pit. The main frame of the body is wood, the outer panels are steel held to the wood frame with steel screws. The wood gets damp and rots. The steel screws embedded in the damp rotting wood rust away. Exterior beading and panels start coming away. In extreme cases the body can begin to collapse. The later Routemaster is an aluminium frame with aluminium body panels screwed and riveted to it. Small amount of wood used in the cab area and top front of bus and platform. Hence one of the reasons Routemasters, though not as interesting to look at, are more sought after than RTs. Having power assisted steering and a semi automatic gearbox are another.

That red round switch with a small rounded point on the right side of the driver is the INDICATOR ( TURN SIGNAL) & it is NOT!!! SELF CANCELLING you must turn it off yourself once you have made your turn or pulled out or changed lanes. This bus looks in a bit of a sorry state but, not impossible to restor & repair ( once you know where to get the spare & replacement parts. Places in England ( specialist & enthusiast ) can really help in others getting the replacements & parts for these classics ( not saying cheap but, WELL WORTH!!! the effort in the end & something to be very proud of achieving. This could be a real challenge but, as long as you get the right help & right parts it could be fantastic & MAYBE use to hire out for special occassions i.e weddings , hen or stag parties birthday parties & even just general day trips to places Once the vehicle ( bus ) has been fully checked serviced & m.o.t'd fueled up DIESEL NOT PETROL if i am correct. & insured of course & then enjoy it 😁😁😁😁👍😉 But, try to keep it under a big roof or very larged shed or similar building to protect it from the wether when not in use. & always keep it clean it once it is fully restored & repaired. It be so nice to see this once it has had all that work done to it. & fully running & it seems a bit strange why it isn't in the UK where it would be expected to be Not in the USA OR CANADA or abroad But, we know the Americans & some Canadians will buy almost anything of our heritage for themselves. 🤔🤔🤔🤔

When they turn up in the UK a RT wlll cost you 20,000GBP to 50,000GBP in this condition. Many RTs were exported to Sri Lanka in the early 1960s dont know if any exist with the one time Ceylon Transport Board

@@highpath4776 yes, in Sri Lanka Transport Board still have some of them. From 1972 to 1978, I used to go to school in Colombo by this type of buses. Very comfortable. If you come to Sri Lanka, in SLTB Ratmalana Depot (close to Colombo city) a few of them can be seen.
