It's a Bedford, with local bodywork.

I agree, a typical Malta bus in a typical Malta street. I've been there twice.

This being Malta, just because it says it's a Bedford doesn't mean it is ... :/

I replied to Ingo's comment, not kudos'. He slipped in between before I had posted my reply.

Frontal style would suggest a Bedford SB

...which means its almost certainly not an SB.... (unless it actually is one).

Malta buses famously do not tell the truth.

There was an excellent web-site with a lot of the old Malta buses listed with their histories but the chances of locating the exact bus was slim at best.

Malta buses should probably be nicknamed 'Maltesers' anyway.

This matches the details seen I believe and probably is the bus (found on the first page when searching)...

Always assuming that the bus in the main picture is DBY 322, of course. I've been to Malta as well!
