The difficulty here is to tell whether this is a bus or truck chassis. Without knowledge of the actual vehicle or the types operated at the time I can make no more than a guess, and I won't sink that far. |

Most likely a Mercury. But I will research further as would not like to guess -- Last edit: 2017-02-03 09:18:36 |

Yes, axle looks a bit far forward for a bus chassis. |
