Arizona Yellow (L10H) was available in early 68, looks close but hard to tell on
a computer monitor?

looks dark but maybe it is one of the buses we had in germany to take people to and from the hospital, not REALLY ambulances
depending on who ran them they could be quite dark, and they would have had ambulance dividers.
katastrophenschutz maybe?

I am guessing that it is a VERY early '66. like 3 years early...
that bus is quite obviously a 1963 model.
no idea on the color. cool bus.

I know it's not, but it looks like Westy brown interior paint.

Looks khaki to me which is (was) a military colour used on military vehicles still to this day. Could have been an officer transport bus for a military base?
Does the owner have any history on this bus?

Neat, I was not aware of that.
Good catch on the 1963, not 1966.
I didn't look super close at the M-code plate (surprisingly) or obviously some other attributes of the Bus like the back hatch and 63 Kombi style middle seat.

That color looks strangely familiar.
Kind of close:

Im thinking an ambulance color in a European market
Mplate reports it as an 'unknown special color'
