The Corbeil Conventional or 1st Premier was a high floor type-C school bus offered on a variety of chassis, most prominently the International chassis. Ford and Freightliner chassis were also produced.
The 1st Premier name was only used for the first years of production, and these models have "1st Premier" instead of the happy face logo above the door and the driver's window. The switch occurred sometime between 1995 and 1997[1].
In about 2001, the roof area above the windshield and above the rear emergency door was restyled.
Corbeil stopped producing their large school buses, mainly due to the discontinuation of the International chassis in 2004 and after Blue Bird introduced their Vision chassis in 2003, and IC Corporation products were introduced to Canada in 2005 (after being marketed under Ward and Amtran in the United States for years).
