This bus has the front fascia of the medium- and heavy-duty models If a C-Series, at least a C-50 (or a C-60?), as the smaller C-30 bus was really... small (16 to 20 pupils on a 133"/3.38 m wheelbase) But depending of the wheelbase, it could also be a S-Series... ⇒ 1964 Chevrolet C-Series Carpenter -- Last edit: 2015-01-20 02:48:52

eLMeR ◊ 2015-11-16 01:49	1964 only fenser badge. @ night cub: This thumbnail confirms the medium-/heavy-duty front face, wheel arches and wheel rims. It appears that only S-Series models were available in 1964 (and maybe earlier. 1962?). So unless a post-factory "recut" model, this bus is most probably an S-50, due to its short wheelbase: 157"/3.99 m for the only S-50 model, 197"/5.00 m for the smallest S-60. ⇒ 1964 S-50 Carpenter [S5302]? -- Last edit: 2018-08-16 01:21:24
