Perfect for a small sightseeing tour.

For one point, please respond and identify bus and coachbuilder.

Looks like a Ford, but that would be too easy.  Ostner Rex?

That's the solution. The model is not further specified, probably a G 798 B. The frame modification was done by Clerck. The bus was built in 1950.

I'm more inclined toward F-5 B than G 798 B.  Front clip looks like the American truck instead of the Ford Rhein or the FK 1000.

I think it is based on Ford BB Spezial 1,5-2 t mechanics. The wheel size and the axle load fit perfectly.
