Excel, the Standard of Styling and Safety in School Bus Transportation, 1958
Add to SetSummary
Excel Body Corporation built school buses in Durant, Oklahoma, from the 1940s into the 1960s. In this 1958 brochure, the company emphasized safety and styling -- the latter a quality not often associated with school buses. Wraparound front and rear windshields gave Excel's buses a slightly streamlined appearance.
