............I actually did a DOUBLE-TAKE when I saw this bus......(!!) 
I thought I was SEEING things when I saw an Old Look with a trolley-style DECK ROOF!!!!
Obviously, the bus was re-worked for some sort of tourist service to a historic "downtown" tourist area, somewhere.
I cannot speculate any further on this one........THANKS AGAIN for posting this truly "OFF-THE-WALL" Old Look!!!!!

Very weird! Did they actually cover paired windows back to appear like the older square windows?

It's just a very cleaver paint job to make it appear that way.

NOW we KNOW what an Old Look "TROLLEYBUS" might have looked like, had GM ever decided to build electric coaches....... 
Seriously, after World War Two, Old Look-style (YELLOW) trolleybuses WERE commonplace in Russia, and, also, in some other "distant locales" as well.......
It seems as though the YELLOW Old Look design was "copied" for overseas use......
