Former British bus body manufacturer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Willowbrook was an English bus bodybuilder. Founded in 1927, it acquired the business of Stokes & Holt, Leicester. In 1952 it acquired a patent from Brush Traction to build metal-framed bodies. While buses where their core business, they also built bodies for Alvis TC 108G cars in the mid 1950s.
