I would like to get some history of the company.I remember their immaculate depot off Great Eastern Highway.There were various Denning coaches.Those would gradually be replaced by new Bova's from 1986 onwards and the Denning's (and AAC's Perth based coaches) were also replaced by Bova's.They would end up in Adelaide too. I think one was sold To Explorer Coaches,SA. What did their fleet consist of at the time Max Winkless bought the company? Who owned it then? Who started the company?
I added 3 Denning photos.

I remember their immaculate depot off Great Eastern Highway.(no comparison when compared to the Glynde depot).There were various Denning coaches.Those would gradually be replaced by new Bova's from 1986 onwards and the Denning's (and AAC's Perth based coaches) were also replaced by Bova's.Their coaches and AAC's would end up in Adelaide too. I think one Denair was sold to Explorer Coaches,SA. What did their fleet consist of at the time Max Winkless bought the company? Who owned it then? Who started the company?
