I very much doubt it would have had one as a stock item.

They were fitted either by a dealer but usually after market. Here in the UK we fitted either Radiomobile, PYE, Philips or on rare occasion Blaupunkt or Motorola. The main issue was cost, a car radio was a weeks wages, let alone the fitting involved.

all radios were an optional accessory on buses, i would guess it would be a blaupunkt munich/emden with U/M/L as they were all produced around 1965-72.

my Aug 1970 instruction manual shows the following 3 radio options, in descending order

Braunschweig model with 5 tuning press buttons, 2xU (VHF), 2xM, 1xL
Emden model with 3 waveband press buttons, U, M & L
Wolfsburg model with 2 waveband press buttons, M & L

all were, I think, mono, and here's a pic of my Emden installed, and running my ipod thro the aux socket at back of radio
