Title: Solved TGF-478: Six-Wheel Company bus on Goodyear licence, 1924.
Post by: targhediferro on April 23, 2015, 05:11:22 AM
Can you correctly identify this bus?  I need to know the maker, the model and who gave the licence to build it.

It was built in 1924 under license from Goodyear by The Six-Wheel Co.
Ellis W. Templin developed and filed a patent for the design of the Six-Wheel Truck for the Goodyear Tire Company in1921

Absolutely correct....I moved it from Esperts to Pros at one o'clock a.m. in order to give a little help to non European puzzlers, and it worked!  I have to check if I actually had a model name (as I've asked for it too) or if it is a mistake in my question; anyway locked for Ropat.

I've checked and my question about the model was a mistake...I had just the chassis measure (255 inches).  The point is for Ropat!

Thank you Fabrizio, I rarely have a chance to answer puzzles before Wendax or 4popoid, usually by the time I'm up in the morning they're already in the solved section.
