Riding a 1972 GM New Look with an 8V71N and Manual Transmission (Community Coach 143)
Here’s a couple of quick ride clips aboard Community Coach 143, a 1972 GMC S8M-5304A Suburban New Look bus preserved by the Classic Bus Owner’s Association. The bus is equipped with an 8V71N Detroit Diesel engine, and a four-speed manual transmission (hence the odd shifts). These clips were filmed on September 17th, 2022, when the bus was being used to shuttle people to/from the Hamilton NJT stop and the 2022 NJTHC Historical Bus Fest.

    That's a "suburban" model without a back door, and all seats facing forward. These were mainly used on express routes which were mostly on highways. Only the manuals at the time had enough gears for it to operate at highway speeds (the automatics on the "transit" models only had two speeds and couldn't go much faster than 35 MPH). Try finding a manual equipped "transit" model with a back door. That's a unicorn.

    I used to take these heavily to Flushing Queens on the Q44 during my high school days. We had 40 footers and they had a distinct whine to them. Years later, the MTA repowered them with Series 50 engines.

    I don't understand why some of the windows were open. Was the ac not working? I used to drive for a company that had one. The vision for the driver was terrific, but on hot days the ac didn't do much for the driver. The only other bad thing was those fishbowls had notoriously soft brakes so a friver really had to think far ahead in planning stops. I almost rearended a car because of that.
