Gm Bus 3703 getting back on the road

This was a project bus from this past year. I re-edited the whole project into one video. This bus had been off the road for 21 years and sitting in the dirt under a tree for 16 years. We got it up and running and moved to its new home in Idaho from Oregon. It ran beautifully and i can’t wait to see it when the conversion gets completed.

[@siaripop7]

I've been watching some of these vintage bus videos recently and all I can say is that I am amazed at how these diesel engines sit for ages and fire up with very little effort other than fuel and batteries; truly impressive motors, not like some of the ones we have today!

[@levak8740]

plus in great shape for its age, paint is nice, nothing seemed rotted or broken, ran very well, surprisingly fast for a 4/71, she hogged up that grade very nicely, sounded great.. needed very little to get it going again from what I so. the 4/71 is only 4.5 liters, and she did 70 mph with it..up hill.. Imagine a 6/71t in that thing, re manned, 0 hours, bus is great from what I can see, I wouldn't hesitate to invest in her.. drop a nice wad making it perfect again, as long as nothing major is gone on her.. ground up resto, get all the pesky problems solved, go right through the drive line , and re do everything (maybe change to a spicer overdrive for commonality) , don't know what this guys budget is, but the thing is almost a museum piece, perfect candidate for a quality re do..

Wow! I love it. I wish I could drive one of the old GM's! I drove city, charter, and tour buses for over 30 years, and was a collector of bus memorabilia and photos. I loved the old PD's, and yet they were all out of service by the time I started driving professionally in 1973. Mostly, I drove the more recent "Buffalos," until I went to city buses; then later, Prevosts and MCI's in charter and tour service throughout the southwest. At 67, I sit around here in Tennessee and there is nothing for me to do. Best of luck to you on this find!

We once owned that bus. My husband and dad restored it. It originally belonged to one of my dad's friends. His name was Charlie. Charlie and dad rebuilt the engine. Dad had a 3703 1948. We vacationed one year at Cape Hatterhas. Dad pulled a VW bug behind his and we pulled a VW bug as well. I drove it home to Uniontown Oh from Breezewood PA with the pedal to the metal topping out at 65 mph. For the smaller engine she was a runner. I was amazed when my son called me one night in 2018 and told me he found our old bus. I've since made FB friends with the owners. Can't wait to see the final restore.

It is nice to see those old buses back on the road again take it on a road trip to Nashville TN and back. In Elmira NY at 654 Sullivan Street sits an abandoned 1991 Ford mustang. The owner is n the military. The car hasn't run in over a year and a half the motor is seized up. The owner tried to remove the rear drive axle to unseize the motor thereby breaking the rear drive axle. My hope s that someone located the owner buys it and fixes it up before it rots away and becomes scrap iron that would be a shame they are highly sought after muscle cars. To let it sit and rot away and become scrap iron would be wrong. Fan of restoring old vehicles Robert Gildea

OMG! I can't believe my eyes! We once owned this bus. My dad had a 1948 3703 and my husband loved it so much that he wanted one. Dad's friend had this bus and ended up selling it to my husband. I think we bought it in the early 80's and sold it in the late 80's. My dad and his friend Charlie (the original owner) rebuilt the motor and put the exhaust pipe in. My husband gutted the inside and totally remodeled it. I reupholstered the seats and made the curtains. My husband had the hitch put on and we pulled a VW bug behind it when we traveled. We took a trip with my parents in their bus and us in ours and headed for Cape Hatteras. Coming home we nearly lost the (hydraulic) brakes in the Blue Ridge Mountains. They got so hot that they were smoking. We had to pull over to the side of the road and sit while they cooled down. Frightening experience to say the least. When we returned home, dad and Roger (my husband) put new maxi brakes on it. I had/have my CDL license and I drove it from Breezewood, Pa to Uniontown, Oh (where we lived) once we got out of the mountains pulling the VW bug and had the pedal to the medal. Dad stayed behind me the entire time and I topped 60 mph passing anything and everything to get back home. lol. When we owned it we had it painted to compliment my dad's bus. Both were painted dark blue with white but different pattern. They were beautiful. Dad's CB handle was Blue Dog 1 and we were Blue Dog 2. Please, please tell me where she is today and keep us updated on her restoration. So many memories. Can't believe she's still around and back on the road. Amazing! Brings tears to my eyes.

Great vid. Brung back memories; Road tested a 47' in Port Angeles, Washington. In 2002 or so, it was built by a paper-mill retiree, that spent twelve years building her out and, she was spot on, twin single beds and everything;) Driving West out of PA on the 101, pulling a relatively tame grade she let go. As a truck driver I felt bad, but as a potential buyer I was relieved somewhat. I paid a diesel mechanic $100 to assess her and his response was the girl needed a bigger motor. And for what ever reason we decided to walk away, kind of sad.

Heh heh, that first start was definitely ASMR for an old mechanic like me. Honestly, I didn't know that they put the 4-71's in the early buses. A lot of late 40's Greyhounds and Trailways buses had inline 6 cylinder 478 International gas engines. I've worked on a few of those and they were serious gas hogs (4-6 mpg tops), and probably didn't have near the torque of that 4-71 Detroit. I'm surprised how well the exhaust cleaned up after it ran for a while. I did hear 1 sticky injector when you first got it going but it seems to have cleared out by the time you got to your fuel stop. You might still want to adjust the rack a bit to get it to fire evenly on all 4 at idle.😉 That's going to be a neat restoration project! Nice work guys!😁👍

[@jamesshanks2614]

The Greyhound Scenicruisers original power plant was 2 4-71 engines each with its own manual clutch going into a common gearbox. When Detroit came out with the 8V71 series in 1957 Greyhound started replacing the dual engine setup with the 8V71. I spoke to a greyhound driver that drove them across the southwest and he had a few breakdowns with the twin engine setup and what he liked is after unclutching the failed engine he could finish the trip. A little slower with only one engine but far better than sitting by the side of the road in the desert. The air conditioner was run by a separate engine. When Greyhound replaced the twin engine setup with the 8V71 they eliminated the air conditioning engine and ran the AC off the main engine. Break down in the desert and it gets hot quickly. Cheers!
