Then it can really only be a TU. The headlights looked like Gaubschat design. Now I have to keep looking.

So, I think only the TU 5 remains. Coachbuilder: Ludewig, Essen. First coachbuilder on behalf of Büssing after World War II.

Sorry, I have to disappoint you... It isn't a TU5, and not from Ludewig

Very tricky!! Distance between front-axle and bumper looks like "Unterflurmotor", "Underfloor motor". Wheelbase indicates maximum 5000 kg useful mass???

So, it will be a 6000 T, even if the weights do not match to the kilo. Now, I'll where to find right coachbuilder.

Not 6000T

6500 T. I begin to despair...
