Contact_Name: John L Vickers Contact_Email: jlv@lcc.net Contact_URL: Serial_Number: N/A comments: Good web site I have been a Scenicruiser fan since 1954 and I can remember PD 4501-002 which was on display in St Petersburg, FL in 1954 at The Greyhound bus station. My dad was a Greyhound bus driver and over the years I have been on and around the scenicruiser's since then. I recall the old power packs with the 2-4/71,s and the change over in the early 60,s to the 8v/71. The best bus that was ever built.It could be compared to the 747 in bus terms. Thanks for the interesting bus web site. jlv Contact_Name: Jubilation Singers Contact_Email: ribarnes@ind.tds.net Contact_URL: Serial_Number: PD450X-0733 comments: We are a Southern Gospel Music Group we just purchased the bus this summer and are restoring it.

Contact_Name: Leroy Van Dyke Contact_Email: gvandyke@iland.net Contact_URL: www.leroyvandyke.com Serial_Number: PD4501898 comments: Purchased when it was twelve years old from Greyhound, customized at Custom Coach, Columbus, Ohio. Used as tour bus for 22 years by country entertainer, Leroy Van Dyke. Retrofitted with 892 Detroit Diesel and 6-speed Allison automatic. Has been inactive for approximately eight year, basically sound but needs extensive cosmetic attention. For sale at $17,000. If interested, call 660-343-5373. Contact_Name: Corbett Upton Contact_Email: appleinn@mosquitonet.com Contact_URL: Serial_Number: PD4501661 comments: Purchased in Texas in 1995. Owned by a charter company from 1970 to 1972 and then by the same family until I purchased it. Originally converted in 1972. I think it may be the only Scenicruiser in Alaska. The former owner installed roof airconditioning in place of the skylights, which I think is unattractive and blocks the view out of the upper windshield. I would like to find some original skylights to return the bus to original, also upper windshields. Mine both have rock chips in them. Otherwise, the bus is in good shape. I don't plan to do much with it until I retire in 4 more years, then do some serious travelling outside in the w intertime. I've spent 30 winters in Alaska and am getting tired of the cold and dark. Any information/discussion on Sceinicruisers, history, parts sources, junked busses, etc. would be welcome. Even though it's not the most practical bus in the world to own, I really like it for it's uniqueness. It's my first coach (I've got a motorhome and schoolbus conversion) but it was also my first choice when I began looking. I found it advertised in Bus Conversion magazine. Contact_Name: Harold B.

I posted this on the "comments" page also...
Let me start by saying that I am VERY MOTIVATED to sell these buses.
I have 3 Scenicruiser buses available at this time.
I would like to sell at least 1 Scenicruiser bus in the next week or 10 days.
You will never get as good a deal as you will now.
Buy one or all.
I will make a you a very good deal for one.
Excellent deal for more.
Can make you a heck of a deal on the entire inventory.
I don't mean to put pressure on you to make a decision.
The pressure is really on me to sell at least one bus.
Make me an offer!!!
Let me know soon...
If this time frame is too soon for you please give me a call when
you do become a serious Buyer and I will be happy to
negotiate a sale for what may still be available.
There are not many of these Old Dogs still around in any kind of
condition.
These are much better than average.
These have never been converted.
I looked at many, many Cruzrs before I found these.
If you need more information please call me.
It gets to be too much to write down!
If you need more information or additional photos let me know.

$12,500 MAKE OFFER!!!
Located in Northwest Montana
I drove #141, the red one home from FL
I drove #510, the blue/wht one home also.
I bought #189 originally to use as a parts chassis.
After seeing this bus I had second thoughts about parting it out.
It really is pretty straight.
This was a bus that was being used by a Canadian marching band.
It was kept up to Canadian regulations.
It was in service until the engine was removed for use in a different
chassis.
Then the front windshields were removed.
Another DD8V71 w/ Jake has been installed. (Installation not completed)
(Engine is supposed to run good, but has not been confirmed)
Engine and rear side doors are in the bus for storage.
It needs most of the glass replaced.
It needs other cosmetic repairs.
Rust and corrosion seem to be better than average.
This is the PD4501 parts inventory that I have available (98% complete).
GM4501 Scenicruiser inventory:
1. PD4501-141
2. PD4501-189
3. PD4501-510

*Very good used Greyhound "dog" nose emblem.
May consider selling as part of the complete inventory.
I have spent years getting all of these rare and original parts together.
No parts available until the last bus has sold.
Make me an offer for the entire inventory and I can make you one heck of a deal!!!
I will consider ALL "FAIR AND REASONABLE" OFFERS
Sharpen your pencil.
I hope that we can negotiate a sale to everyone's satisfaction.
I will negotiate the price when I see a "real" offer.
I am definitely motivated and willing to try and work a Purchase out with the
Buyer.
Let me know what you think.
I am getting a lot of interest in these buses.
They are nice ones!
If you might be interested in the entire inventory, including all of the 4501
parts, I would encourage you to take a look at these while they are still
available together. It would be difficult to find 3 Scenicruiser buses in this
condition all together in one sale.
Bottom line...
I want to sell, are you a Buyer???
May consider a trade (even/up/down +/- $$$)
Looking for-
small dozer with 6-way
or
rubber tire loader 1 1/2 - 2yd
Thanks again for your time and interest.

Mine was converted to a Motorhome by someone who had obviously
seen a plumber once and perhaps shaken hands with an electrician.
Beyond that, his cabinet-making skills were on the massive side.
That said, I still love it! It handles like a dream on the highway.

glass needs to be replaced but is available NEW. The engine is a DD8V71
with Jake brake.. It is supposed to run but has not been confirmed.

In 1991, PeterPan buslines chartered my Eagles on a daily basis to run as extra service from DC to NYC competing with Greyhound for the DC to NYC hourly service. The fares dropped to $9.00 per person RT NYC Dc and Peter Pan asked me if I had another bus. I told them that i did but it was the Scenicruiser and it was in Greyhound colors with the comlete hound slogan on the side "It's such a pleasure to take the bus and leave the driving to us" They said we don't care get it down here,, so it went into daily service DC to NYC leaving from the Peter Pan Terminal right across the street from hound in DC.. when 4300 got to NY Port Authority there were many Hound drivers and brass standing st the curb watching her come in..many pictures were taken..here was a 39 year old Greyhound Scenicruiser back in daily scheduled revenue service in direct competition against them. Who would have ever thought. 4300 made over 20 round trips druing the Peter Pan DC NY startup, it was a big hit with the passengers. A few mounths 4300 went to the movies as herself but a quirk of fate turned the tables on Hound again. It was hired as a hound to appear in the Julliet Lewis movie "That NIght" Well the night before shooting, Hound went on strike and the producers got a telegram,,Permission to use thw Greyhound name not permissable during the strike. What to do.. so I called JOhn Hobine of Blue Ridge Trailways and got permission to use the Trailways name. So thats why in the movie "That Night" there is a blue and white Scenicruiser that says TRAILWAYS BUS LINES on the sides. We showed Hound. Sorry about that history buffs..what a sin huh? Well 4300 retired from charter service in 1995 after doing lots of charters all over the mid atlantic stated and many many airport transfers from Dulles and National Airports in Washington DC to NYC during bad weather. I retired "ha ha" and moved back to Orlando Fl bringing 4300 with me,, she has been in storage for 4 years and is now being cleaned up for sale or who knows mabey another movie,, it aint over yet old gal, you're still looken and runnen good Contact_Name: Gary Wensell Contact_Email: gw1951@hotmail.com Contact_URL: Serial_Number: comments: I don't have a ScenicCruiser, but someday I will.

Any plans for owning one will have to wait until I retire from the Army. I remember a couple of trips in a Scenicruiser in the late '60s or early '70s. My dad was being shipped off to Vietnam, and Mom and us kids were going to live in Hawaii with my grandparents. Of course any young boy with a sense of adventure HAD to sit in the front of the upper deck. Somewhere in the junk my parents store for me are photos I snapped of the San Francisco skyline using my old Kodak Instamatic. That big window made for some interesting viewing. I don't remember how long it took to ride from San Fran to Travis, AFB. I do remember the disappointment of getting off of that beautiful machine.

The King of the Road! 1956 GMC Super Scenicruiser PD4501R-0821 professionally converted to a motorhome in 1975 by Liberty Coach, Inc. in North Chicago, IL. Not an amateur hack job. In 1995 the cost of a new Liberty Coach first exceeded 1 million dollars. Seats 19, sleeps 4. Makes an excellent party bus with lounge area, built in ice maker and blender, and filtered water. Four new tires (12.00x22.5) on driving axle, 5 new batteries, new clutch ($3500), hitch, 12k Onan diesel generator, 4 AC’s (1 original coach and 3 internal AC’s – no bulging roof AC’s), 5 roof exhaust fans, separate shower, electric refrigerator/freezer – no need for propane gas. Why buy a project bus and then get discouraged and give up part way through the conversion like so many others? This bus is a finished professional conversion. Have all manuals. Located in Oxnard, CA. For sale at only $20,000. Contact Gary at swing.dancer@juno.com.

I just bought a 1970 GMC Senicruiser Bus, 40'. We just finished pulling the seats out of it. It is to be, " our Dreamweaver". And since we own 3 large dogs, motels are out of the question. I am however at a stand still. We can not find a manual for the bus, or something that will show all the accessories already in the bus, ie., the huge Trane A/C, an electrial diagram. Is there any help out there for us? My husband, (a professional truck driver-about to retire ), and I will be converting ourselves. We were EXTREAMLY lucky to find a bus that has had the entire engine, drivetrain, air bags and a/c completely redone. We will appreciate any direction that you would be able to point us in. Thank you so much.....Sincerely, Mrs. Sharon Pryor Contact_Name: Charlie McPherson Contact_Email: rocktour@earthlink.net Contact_URL: www.rocktour.net Serial_Number: comments: This began my love for buses. I played drums in an old gospel quartet based in Atlanta back in the mid-70's and we had a 1959 as our tour bus. I remember it being painted several shades of blue with a sparse (read: semi-pro quartet budget) interior. We dreamed then of a model 01 or 05 Eagle like the 'big-boys' had but disbanded before that could happen. In later years I went on to drive a Model 15 45' tour coach and am presently driving a Prevost XL/2 entertainers coach. My love affair with buses lives on.

I never thought I'd find a Scenicruiser web site! How Cool IS This! I traveled quite a bit on the Scenicruisers as a kid, age 9 to 12. They really were the 747 of busses then. I've never considered owning one until I found this site and learned a bit about them. Mostly I've been restoring 1950's boats. Thinking about retiring a few years down the road, a converted Scenicruiser might be just the ticket. For those of you that own Scenicruisers, but have never been aboard the twin 4-71 Jimmy powered version, well, being a gear-head, the twin engine Scenicruiser rates (by me) as the number two best mechanical sound ever made by machinery. Number one, is a Roll Royce Merlin V-12 in a P-51 approaching at low altitude and full power. The sound of the supercharger and roar of the exhaust stacks is enough to send a shiver up your spine. In 1957, we were departing Seattle aboard a Scenicruiser. We were the only ones aboard, so the accoustics were completely open. We hit every traffic light, so there were a lot of stops and gear changes. As a kid, I was enthrawled at the sound of the twin engines mechanically synced together. The twin superchargers were a symphony of sound. I'll never forget it! Not mentioned in the specifications is the electric overdrive. In addition to the four speed transmissions, there was a toggle switch on the gear shift ball. Electric overdrive. On long hauls, I'd stand beside the driver and watch him. If he wanted to pass, he'd hit the overdrive switch (disengaging it)and we'd pass. At only 210 horsepower, the busses were plenty fast. I remember the speedo well above 70 much of the time! Great site. Hope to find one, preferably a completed conversion. Don't need to start another big pr |
