Fiat 666RN carrozzeria Menarini used by autolinee Reni of Ancona.

It is a Fiat bus bodied by Menarini. I have a different type though. Locked for you.

My book source "Storia illustrata dell' Autobus Italiana" by Fondazione Negri states on page 63 that it's a 666RN.

Menarini themselves named a different chassis as base: 6__RN

From a timing point of view (fifties), the 639RN then? As additional information, it was bus 23 from the Reni fleet.

It was made a little bit earlier, but later than the 666RN.

683 RN?

Wendax · « **Reply #14 on:** January 20, 2021, 10:30:57 AM »

No, not much left

Alfa_Japan · « **Reply #15 on:** January 20, 2021, 11:42:15 AM »

684RN?

Wendax · « **Reply #16 on:** January 20, 2021, 01:13:26 PM »

Oh dear, still not.

Alfa_Japan · « **Reply #17 on:** January 20, 2021, 02:15:10 PM »

Fiat made many different vehicles. My last attempt before I give up. 680RN?

Wendax · « **Reply #18 on:** January 20, 2021, 04:50:38 PM »

You don't have to give up, it's correct.

Thanks for adding the point and additionally thanks for added the Menarini magazine advertisement stating the 680 model as the chassis for this bus. As said the book source I have stated 666 therefore it's interesting to see your source with the 680 denomination.
