This was done in Finland, by Wiima.
The sizes of the side windows of this bus are also different from each other.

Did the local Earl Sheib have a special on yellows and golds?, or is there something funny about the film that was taken on?

I'm sure it's just the film. Lots old color film came out weird.
The Bus is likely Mango but looks yellow-ish.

Bullshit Densmore was over 6'. Morrison was 5'11". Unless he was a late bloomer. Same day pic

Remove the seat bottom and sit him on a blanket, and take the pic through an open safari perhaps?

That's a lot of work to take a picture not focused on the vehicle. Other than a walkthrough split, is there any more info on the bus? |
Did we not see the pic above? If Densmore is 6' then Morrison is 6'8"  Google is wrong.
Same day again. He is the shortest.

Not just shortest, but long legs, short torso.

Don’t forget - Jim Morrison routinely wore high heeled boots and lifts in his shoes.
