It does seem to match the description of a 'Code 3' model with after market sticky labels added on top of the original labels (still visible on the bottom edge).

The pictures really are bad and this is the only one worth looking at. I have added some light and a hint of contrast.

Might be worth Googling what appears on the label to see what comes up, maybe a date will be revealed.

I am afraid you are well ahead of me there, I barely visited that site before it went down, so can not comment on any of the models featured. Do we have any Bus enthusiasts here who will add to these comments.

This may be from the 1971 Belgian general election:

Googling the text yields a Christies auction from 1999 in which another one was featured:

However, I myself do not remember seeing this before.
