A costly restoration of a vintage China Motor Bus Company (CMB) double-decker in Hong Kong is facing potential abandonment. Two enthusiasts, Terrence and his friend Chung, invested approximately HK$1 million into the project, aiming to bring the antique vehicle back to its former glory. The restoration was taking place at a facility in the New Territories. However, the future of the project is now uncertain, threatening to halt their efforts. The pair, a bus enthusiast and a blacksmith specializing in automotive work, had dedicated significant resources to the endeavor. The stalled project highlights challenges faced by those preserving Hong Kong’s transport heritage. Further details regarding the reasons for the potential abandonment have not yet been released.
