| Cool collection, Frank! I have a Trolleybus set with that same yellow and white bus. They were made by a company called Eheim and sold through various manufacturers. I've never seen the blue bus before. In your pictures it looks like the chassis has a pin on the steering mechanism as if it works like a slotcar, is that correct?

I have no idea. Tires are missing from the blue bus and the body is off. Dont know if everything else is there. There is information in the 1958 Aristo-Craft Catalog on page 6 showing that bus with the 2 rear axels.
