Chassis does look original. The modern 'vintage' vehicles I've seen don't exude the same character.

I agree but if you have been to Whitby you will have noticed the steep hill they have to climb from the seafront, and to be honest if I was on that one or the steam bus, I would be a little nervous

why be nervous? the old vehicles put their power into torque not speed.... a vintage vehicle will quite happily trundle up a hill at 0.000000000000001 mph ....
well ok maybe 2 mph

Well I did see the steam bus have to stop part way up then it rolled back a bit before moving off again and the guy in the car behind it looked really nervous
