Athenes :love: :love: Mon quartier préféré = le square de la Constitution avec à droite le fabuleux et très cher "Hotel de Grande-Bretagne"

et à droite une Chevrolet 1955 1500 4-portes qui passe et qui va vers Omonia

It's probably stock footage.

The letters on the background building read 'ΙΛΙΠΣ'. Therefore I guess it is probably in Athens.

All what you always wanted to know about the Constitution Square (Place Syntagma) while drinking a "café-frappé" on one of the terrasses :lol:

En 1960, c'était des bus Mercedes. Avant, je dois chercher dans les vieux albums.

Yvon, I hope you noticed that whilst drinking your coffee! :D

No, because it changed a little bit: same place 40 years later

The old Philips publicity is now replaced by that one in the middle in orange color

In book about Athens architecture of 1955 = same (100% sure) busses were driving in the town

This bus has a flat windscreen but the other 706 RTO in the database has a curved one:
/vehicle_38575-Skoda-706-RTO.html

Also, the historical photo gallery on Karosa's website doesn't include any RTOs with flat windscreens:
