« on: January 17, 2013, 02:17:49 AM »
Another private snapshot showing a bus.

For one point, please respond and identify this bus by telling me the chassis and the coachbuilder.

It is not the Fleischer S 1, but a bus coachbuilt by Fleischer, based on another chassis.

Locked for you.

No, try again. Still locked. And it is most probably from 1958!

1958 doesn't help me much with my source, as I don't have the book.  Ford ?

Not Ford, but a very similar manufacturer.

Yes, it is a 1958 Fleischer bus on an Opel Blitz (probably prewar) chassis.

Well done, another point for you.

Yes, but there are some exterior differences apart from the main difference: the Fleischer S1 was a unitbody construction.
