Why So Few Greyhound Scenicruisers Still Have Their Seats

General Motors built 1,001 Scenicruisers, only for Greyhound. In the middle of the 1970s Greyhound let them go. Where did they all end up? Subscribe to Full Chrome for more stories behind the cars, and tell us in the comments: did you ever ride a Scenicruiser? We follow Greyhound's split-level coach after it left the fleet: to schools, churches and touring bands, into homes on wheels, and into fields and yards for decades. We look at why so few survived, what it takes to keep one running, whether owners keep the Detroit 8V-71 or repower, and how to tell an original. And we follow coach 001, the very first one built. 0:00 The engine and the question 3:03 From star coach to second-hand 4:51 Schools, churches and bands 7:43 Homes on wheels 8:53 Why so few survived 10:11 Coach 907 and the rescues 12:41 Keep the 8V-71 or repower 14:17 How to spot an original 16:00 Museum pieces and travellers 17:53 Coach 001 19:21 What became of them Sources: Wikipedia - Scenicruiser Pacific Bus Museum - Scenicruiser Bus & Motorcoach News - A Restored Scenicruiser Brings Back Memories at EXPO BusRide - The 2010 Hounds of the Mother Road Reunion Barn Finds - American Icon: Serial Number 001 1954 GMC Scenicruiser Music: Title "Clean Soul" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b...
