Superior Industries were a builder of truck and ambulance bodies in Virginia that in 1966 diversified into bus body building. In the late 1960s a large number of Leyland Leopards and in the mid-1980s some Leyland Tigers were bodied, but most bodies were mostly constructed on lighter chassis from Bedford and Ford and later Hino and Mercedes-Benz.[1]
In 1980 Superior moved to a new factory in Brendale.[1] Superior ceased trading in 1996 by which time it had bodied about 450 buses.
