Solved TGF-78: Diamond T, by Ayats 1952
« on: March 19, 2013, 03:23:16 PM »
To all rookies:  I decided to leave my quiz in your section for three days only.  Then, if nobody will try to guess and show to walk on the right path, I'll move them to Experts.

I find that this bus is very cool...can you tell me make, model, coachbuilder and year?

Just to keep it going, the ID characteristics are very similar to Volvo and Scania busses from the 1960's era.  Does that give us a direction??  Maybe not the Swedish market as they were driving on the left till 1967.

Well, Fabrizio it was worth a try.....
And, I think Luciano is on the scent.  Or, Belgian. Neither one of which I am very good at. ::)

Hi Bill, Hi Luciano...it's quite strange, or almost unusual, but you are not on the right path. Not Dutch, neither Belgian.

Not French, Italian, Dutch or Belgian.  Is it German?

No replay could be more perfect!  English base with Spanish coachbuilder, a strange mix.

The Diamond T would make it an American base.  ;)

A bit of streamlining.

For one point, please respond and identify this bus.
