No pic of it in the 50's gallery on .dk so I assumed... I will have to ask about it,as even on list they don't have the full chassis # |

Tony told me he doesn't think the one before still exists. Not the one after. So you are right...but i just state off the website..because on one knows. But i think your bus is really the 3rd oldest window bus in the world.... Which is fucking amazing!
