It appears to be a mid '70s Superior Chevy C/60.

I'm thinking its more from the 70's than the 80's due to the mirror package.

Do the world a favor and bring back GMC and Ford conventional chassis......

The bus has the pre-74 rear end and roof caps so it's anywhere from a 1967-1973 Superior Chevrolet.

It does appear to be from the 70's. The reason I say this is because
the buses Chevrolet built from 1980 until the early 90's had a rectangular emblem on the side of the cowl. In this emblem it would give the model (C/60) and engine type, usually just V8, or "Fuel Pincher Diesel". The 1967-1979 Chevrolet's simply had a C/60 emblem on the side of the cowl, which appears to be what this one has.

Sorry for hijacking, But I found 4 oldies today. I know first two but the second two I aam lost on. They look like Waynes but i think they are the Welles version. (sorry for the blur)



I didnt take a pic of the front end of the first one because it was salvaged.



Are they wayne or welles

One is GMC and the other is Ford. They are in Northern Indiana. They seemed to have different nameplates on them than the waynes Ive seen. If i go that way today i'll take a shot of them.

Thanks everyone. I was thinking 70s, but the design of the door kinda threw me off.

Due to the current economic condition, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off until further notice.
