Dodge buses of this era were based on the 1½-ton F-, the 2½-ton J- or the 2¾-ton R-models (11,750 to 19,000 lbs / 5.3 to 8.6 t of GVWR), depending on the wheelbase and the passenger capacity. No Dodge trucks or chassis were maid in Spain before the early 1970s, I'm not sure that the Spain body is enough to set it as "Built in Spain". And as export model, the basis could a Fargo chassis + cab.

In UK, these are known as 1 1/2 deckers, or sometimes as observation coaches. Both this and the link are airline feeder coaches. /vehicle_592901-Commer-Commando-Q4-1946.html -- Last edit: 2016-03-29 15:40:09
