This pic is incredible !!!!! Who dug that out ? where ?
I N S A N E !
3 years ago Mark (Spicer), Valentin and me were talking to the original owner of this bus in person and he told us about his transporting business and frequent travel tours to the Großglockner summit. he told us that by 1959 the bus became so tired after over 100k kilometers in steep mountain terrain. he had to sell it.
Of course this is ANOTHER Kohlruss built coachbuilt DLX.

I don't know anything about this Bus but I can see the rear wheel has a slot in it because of the light coming through so this makes me think it's on 15" wheels and probably a post-Barndoor Bus.
I also don't see any reflectors down low on the corners, like a Barndoor would have
