The colour scheme here is NOT McVicar livery in any form! The livery shown on this Atlantean would be more akin to Toronto or Punchbowl (who had Deckers in this scheme)

I think you will find that the livery on this Atlantean would be more based on the McVicars livery see for yourself.Picture from the Ken Magor collection

One of them has the proper two piece rims.
EDIT: the 22.5 single piece used in the first pic appear to be Leyland issued rims as used on the National!!
