Can anybody tell anything about this bus? Who is Gordy Davis. Came into a few tubs of busses. I collect bugs but not busses.

I have a set of 18 trucks (not VW) from the same manufacturer. These are Chevron gasoline trucks through the years. Starting with horse drawn wagons up to 1930’s fuel trucks. Dad collected them from the Chevern station everytime he fill up. Starting in 1990 he got 3 trucks a years until the promo ended in 1995. Any way each truck is in the same exact box.
I like the panel bus you have. A nice addition to your collection. _________________ Prosit!

Stumbled across this on a die cast sight, still working on more information to post along with it.
Edit:
Jose Carlos Pace drove The Decon Team of Brazil under the command of engineer Paulo de Aguilar Goulaet. A specialized race car modified with a Porsche engine and chassis. He won the 12 hour of Interlagos where his car was pushed to the finish line after breaking down on the final lap.
