Lateef ◊ 2019-07-22 22:44	Nope, it's a "flyttebuss" (moving bus) made to transport furniture.
andrepa ◊ 2019-07-22 22:58	same model as this http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee246/Steiden/Arnesen.jpg
Lateef ◊ 2019-07-22 23:07	L-25076 was a 1963 Volvo B615-97 with OCA body (O.C. Axelsen Fabrikker, Flekkefjord). I agree it's very similar, but the windshield is slightly off. Also more likely an Oslo-registered bus.
Exiv96 ◊ 2019-07-22 23:19	Interesting. But if it doesn't have side windows and is used to transport stuff rather than humans, can it still be called a bus ? It reminds of this vehicle used in the Netherlands in the 1980s : Link to "i.pinimg.com" The chassis is a Volvo B10M, but it's bodied as a truck.
dsl ◊ 2019-07-22 23:49	.... also this 1930s UK enigma.
andrepa ◊ 2019-07-22 23:53	Interesting, in Norway a Mercedes Ackermann Pullman is called a 'flyttebuss' too Remember the discussion wether it is a van or a truck? Link to "sundborg.wordpress.com" In Germany we have fire trucks in Omnibus-Bauform Last but not least the Kombibuss in Norway which is a hybrid of truck and bus maybe Lateef will find one in the docu...
