Added to the Fun Fleet collection
This bus was purchased from SF Muni. I picked this bus up in San Francisco and drove it to Perris. The bus body was in poor shape. It had a gbroken car line and cracked through the mask. Of course it was an original Muni 5305 and one of 10 built with AC The bus mechanically was always good with routine maintenance. I was sold to a bus fan from San Francisco.
Unusual Fishbowls
These buses ere probably some of the most unusual fishbowls made. they came with power steering, front door interlock and side door horn. They were also fitted with rear door entrance control from the outside. they also had N60 injectors and a VS-2-8, but with the v6 dear ration which made them extremely powerful for the hill of San Francisco. They also had the "BB" mufflers with were very noisy.
