ID for this old Pioneer vehicle

Post by Centralian »

Found an old postcard with this Pioneer vehicle in the view. Appears to be TV2X5 (possibly TV205) at Wentworth Falls in the Blue Mountains.
Obviously an Ansair body, what would the chassis be - possibly 1950's sometime, maybe early '60's, so I think of a Bedford SB, maybe Commer ?
I assume part of Pioneers Day Tours fleet in Sydney at the time.

Chassis would be a Commer of about 1950 build - I've got a photo here identical to this one.
