I do not recognize the TC designation - what is the complete chassis number?
I answered on the basis of engine options available in 1961.
The Z indicates that the chassis was supplied without a cab, so it would have been fitted with the bodywork by a bodybuilder.
Dedicated bus chassis available in 1961 were SB, VAS, VAL, and VAM, so anything else would have been a truck chassis.
Does your vehicle have a bonnet (hood)? If not it could be a J3 converted to forward control.
