As far as I remember, it's an Hercules from Greece?

Faun?

Yes, it is a Faun with Greek Hercules bodywork. LOCKED for 'Wendax' for three attempts to find type and year

Hard to tell the wheelbase by this low quality picture. So my first attempt on the model would be a Faun O 7 V.
Faun stopped manufacturing bus chassis in 1953, but offered them from stock until 1956. I'll have a guess at 1953.

Not Faun O 7 V
Not 1953

Wendax · « **Reply #23 on:** April 27, 2023, 08:06:04 AM »

Faun O 9 V, 1955?

fromwien · « **Reply #24 on:** April 27, 2023, 09:24:10 AM »

Not Faun O 9 V
Not 1955, but right direction
