I don't post buses often, but this one has a really stylish design. Identify this bus and the coachbuilder, please

I also came across the SPA 38R, but with a body from Esperia.

Thanks Bertrandt, however 1 correction for your administration. The  bus in the photo is bodied by Renzo Orlandi as the advertisement on the rear window clearly states and not by Officine Esperia. You got your information from a tank forum, however that forum is wrong for this particular bus when it comes to the body as the white coloured sign on the rear window states Renzo Orlandi. My answer was therefore 75% correct (the Fiat info was missing), not 50%  8)

Alfa Japan is correct.
There is no doubt the body was made by Renzo Orlandi.

That was not my intention. My intention is to have it correctly documented. Officine Esperia did make a few civilian Fiat SPA 38R autobuses, but the puzzle bus is 100% sure made by Renzo Orlandi. The evidence is even written in the rear window.

"My intention is to have it correctly documented."
That is also my aim and a wrong answer does not earn a point. That's not a problem, once again I've become smarter!

Alfa-Japan is correct.  Sorry formy mistake.  To remain honest I therefore withdraw the point from Sichel.  No more bus puzzle for me
