Is it listed in Alessandro Sarnia's (als15) Encyclopedia ?

I am here not so much for a point, but as a researcher of obscure coachbuilders.
As I said in a previous post I found a very nice picture of the Sforzesco bus and lorry the day they were
presented to the press.
On the front of both there is a script that could be the name of the coachbuilder.
Unfortunately is not perfectly legible but is probably 5 or 6 letters long and one of the letters could be a b,
a d or an l.
Can you confirm?

Amadei?

I don't know, all of my books are in storage until August - sorry

It is not Amadei

It is 7 letters long, starts with Am and there is another a and an l in there.

als15 reference was published here as "The Encyclopaedia of Italian Coachbuilders". You'll find the link easily.

"Wrong time frame" : it should be Amolari, Varese, Viale Tamagno

indeed

At last and well done.
Never heard before.

pguillem · « **Reply #94 on:** May 04, 2020, 09:07:38 AM »

That was a really hard nut. I'm surprised that such an interesting bus can be found on one place online, but with a wrong identification.
Thank you very much !

pguillem · « **Reply #95 on:** September 05, 2020, 09:13:48 PM »

Which is the real one ?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #96 on:** September 06, 2020, 07:02:52 AM »

This article was published either in 1950 or 1951 (sorry, can't find my notes at the moment)

pguillem · « **Reply #97 on:** September 07, 2020, 05:22:35 PM »

Well, it seems that Macchi is a wrong identification.

A comment by Valter Poggi, member of the Facebook group "Autobus d'epoca, che passione!!!"

> the CABI Cattaneo project was sold to Bianchi / Autobianche and will become the Sforzesco but the bodywork was Macchi ....

thanks for investigating this, all I have is this 1950-1951 article in a French magazine
