The RTS is a vastly underappreciated bus. Composite body, stainless steel frame, and built for hard city use. His coachbuilder did an outstanding job. That front door is awesome. It looks like it was built with it from the factory.

OMG this is amazing. The first indication we didn't have an average bus was electric shades in the windshield. Then more and more and more. "Rainfall shower with built in lighting" - many would dream of this in their house! Very very nice. Much more than a purple bus. Must have cost a fortune, but look at the results.

Oh, this is a great looking coach. Very nicely done. Love the one piece front door. These have always been a well styled bus. When GM decides to do styling right, they get it fantastically right! Style wise, these buses were decades ahead of their time.

Nice bus RTS busses are great for converting roughly 6' 10" head room 102" wide typically the same running gear as a hwy bus maybe a different gear set up But bullet proof if I ever build another one I'll do one Scott ask him where he got the TV lift I've been looking for one for years I saw the drive video yeah that wheel has seen better days . Thanks for sharing.

I heard him just fine, but that is not a bad idea. Other than wireless mics and having to mix audio, he might have been louder if he had been in front of the camera during the tour, but I think it came out okay with the camera leading the owner-narrator through the tour.

Great looking coach! Here in Canada, the RTS didn't fly, so GMDD came up with the GMC Classic which eventually replaced the New Look. GMDD produced the Classic until 1992 when it was taken over by MCI. In 1997, MCI became NovaBus, which produces their products out of the same former GMDD plant just outside of Montreal

I drove them when I was a transit bus driver from 1988-2010 and we called them "RTS" rolling ton of sh!! They were hot in the front in the summer because of the front windshields generating the amount of heat in the winter, they were good for the winter because of the heat, they had 6v92t motors which were turned down to 50 mph and you were lucky to get 47 mph and 15-18 up any small hill, put the AC on you had to turn it off to go up a hill (after a lot of operators got tickets because they couldn't get it uphill, they turned them up and eventually they changed the blocking sheet so certain routes were no longer given a RTS so they could get up the hills with the bus)

I had no idea these could even do highway speed. My college used them and I doubt they ever exceeded 40mph in their entire careers. I love the workmanship on this one. I even like the purple. It's a little too much purple for me personally, but I love that the owner is bold enough to do it his way, and he did it exceptionally well.
