I suspect a GMC "Old Look," unless somebody can show me evidence to the contrary. |

1949 GM TDH 5101.The 4801 or other 51++ don´t have that serial number taken over from the New York time. -- Last edit: 2014-11-06 20:20:46 |

Very wrong identification! The bus (a brighter shot below)can't be a TDH 5101 - 400 5101's built exclusively for New York City in 1948 met with the crusher in the early 60's except for one that is preserved in the MTA Museum fleet. The pictured bus is a wide body at 102 inches whereas the 5101 was narrow at 96 inches - additionally, the 5101 had a 14inch blank area between the driver's window and the first passenger window to compensate for the 'double stream' front passenger door on the opposite side (see 5101 photo also below). From the part of the bus that's photographed no expert (not even me!) could tell you exactly what model it was except to say that it would have to have been a 5103, 5105 or a 4801. And finally as Jay Leno would say; Greyhound's motto used to be 'Leave the Driving to Us' - well mine is; leave these questionable ID's of GM Old Looks to me! Thanks for your time. ![[Image: lasvegasmovie.6959.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is34/lasvegasmovie.6959.jpg) ![[Image: nyc51012969.443.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is706/nyc51012969.443.jpg) Pictures edited.

Editor Vilero, I would be happy to present my photos in thumbnail size but, shamefully, I don't know how! If you can help me with this I would appreciate it. My images come to you via Photobucket. Thanks, TDM 4512 |

The 14" blank part is new for me. Sharing knowledge with others is good. -- Last edit: 2025-01-26 16:53:31 |
