looks like a mid-1960s to me however, GM did carry over the dog house designs for buses quite awhile after they switched designs for the regular trucks so it might be a bit newer than it looks. The title should say what year it is.
looks like its been sitting so you'll need to go thru everything. I would imagine its a hydro-boost brake system. they work but air is better of course, but not everyone would be able to drive it if Air brakes.
Your idea of putting it on a newer chassis is maybe the simplist. you can get "old" buses pretty cheap. saw a full sized maybe 10 year old diesel freighliner with about 26000 miles that needed nothing go for $2600 at an auction. i should have bought it to resell. anyway would save time and $ buying parts. swapping the body would be a feat itself but doable. at the same time many many medium truck parts are really common and common between brands (GM , FOrd Dodge, IH) did not generally make their own front ends. meritor was/is a big one so you could maybe find newer components to fit on your old chassis too.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
