All fresh and back on the road 🚛😄

This DAF CF 530 just had a full repaint for Ryal Bush Transport and it’s come out looking sharp. The best part? The lines are painted on – no stickers trying to peel off at the worst possible time.

Looks good, stays protected, and keeps the fleet looking professional.

Fresh coat, fresh look 💙
We recently completed a full repaint on this Hobbs & Banks truck — cab and truck bin — and it’s looking sharp! The bold blue finish really makes the branding pop and gives this Iveco a clean, professional presence on the road.

Proud to deliver quality paintwork that looks great and works hard for businesses 🚛✨

🔧 Custom Flat Deck Modification for 5th Wheeler 🔧
Another tidy custom job done by Bus & Truck Bodyworks 👌
We modified this flat deck ute so the owner can safely transport his 5th wheeler — built strong, practical, and engineered for the load.

From structural changes to clean finishing work, we make sure every job meets the highest standard so you can tow with confidence.

If you need custom modifications, repairs, or full rebuilds, we’re here to help. ✨
