Another beautiful bus.

For one point, please respond and identify this bus. All I know is the marque and the year.

RHD and what seems to be Semperit tyres.
Austrian??

Wendax · « **Reply #7 on:** March 03, 2013, 08:16:19 AM »

Good guess, but not Austrian

Staying with the RHD fixation, can it be a Czech brand??

Getting colder

You will think I am crazy, but,, Argentina??

Wendax · « **Reply #11 on:** March 03, 2013, 10:45:32 AM »

My "Getting colder" hint was meant geographically, not alphabetically.

Bill Murray · « **Reply #12 on:** March 03, 2013, 10:53:16 AM »

All in good fun.

I had forgotten Argentina drove on the left pre-1945 and one of the bus history sites I visit had several photos of busses of what I think is this one's vintage with the stylized "fish" logo on the front of the radiator. So............take a wild chance.

If nothing else, Gerd, I am persistent.

Now..........Hungary and Sweden also drove on the left at that time so I will have a look around there. I don't think it is British or Italian.

The country we are looking for drove on the right, but some of their trucks and buses were RHD though.

targhediferro · « **Reply #14 on:** March 03, 2013, 11:29:00 AM »

Alfa Romeo?

Wendax · « **Reply #15 on:** March 03, 2013, 11:33:42 AM »

Not Italian

could it be Swiss? RHD for negotiating mountain passes.

targhediferro · « **Reply #19 on:** March 03, 2013, 11:57:55 AM »

Ok, I'm actually barking at every trees...It's better I go to study a little more.

Bill Murray · « **Reply #20 on:** March 03, 2013, 12:04:29 PM »

I did not mention Switzerland, but it fits the pattern we are looking for.

I have exhausted my sources for Berna, FBW and Saurer so if it is Swiss it may be another marque. Good Hunting..............I have been kidnapped for house remodelling duties for a while.

I got a free moment.
Can this be a Citroen??

No, it is Swiss.
