Imagínese una GMC RTS de la AMA cuando la desaparecida T1E con rolo de fondo rojo sangre que decía Country Club, Baldorioty de Castro, San Juan vía Parada 22 y Ponce de León
I remember listening to the series 03 buses when I visited Fayetteville. FAST slopeback series 03 buses sounded just like this. 71 Series Detroit Diesel with a Allison V-730 3 speed automatic transmission.
This must be another NDS Motors channel. Love your 1980 GMC RTS videos. This one is in better shape than the others. He tore that highway up. Great video!
TheCRTman EXCELENTE TRABAJO EN ESPECIAL EL ROLO QUE DICE ESCOLAR, ME RECUERDA CUANDO LAS GUAGUAS QUE TENIA LA AMA CUYA FLOTA ERA DE 1980 Y 1983 HASTA EL 1997 QUE DIERON SERVICIO. EXCELLENT WORK WITH THE ROLLSIGN WITH THE ESCOLAR (SCHOOL BUS) SIGN, I COULD REMEMBER WHEN MBA HAVE THOSE BUSES IN THEIR FLEET FROM 1980 AND 1983 OPERATING THRU 1997.
What is the serial number on the build plate? I couldn't see it too well when you showed it, but it almost looked like it was a model T7W-603 serial A969 or something. Let me know and I can tell you where this bus originally ran. It definitely has a Detroit 6V71N, which sounds better than a 6V92TA in an RTS imo.
I loved them RTS2s. They were the MTA/PA (Port Authority) citybuses back in the diz-ay. 1200-1599. Add that TURBO, and you are in the hiz-ouse. Mark my words.
rts9100 8v71buses ClassicTVMan1981X Great 1980 GMC RTS on the highway. This seems to be the same guy who filmed the other 1980 RTS videos where one was in bad shape in 2012.
Used to work on these babies back in the day. Loved to drive them too.

The RTS 2 was the first public transit bus I ever rode. This video brings back old memories.
These Buses sound like the 1982 Neoplan Atlantis Liner N-416A Bus of Milwaukee County.
Looks like an ex MTA NYCT RTS.
one is ex Fairfax Connector, the other i am not sure. i can guarantee it isn't ex NYCT.
That's cool to see an RTS II being used as a school bus. Way cooler ride than the Blue Birds and Thomas!
That is a fact. You get to enjoy that 6V92 engine
Idk why but the Idle sounds so much like the DD50. You can definitely tell its a 6V92 though since the DD50 MTA units were loud as hell 🤣

Sounds like a 92 though
@@RRansomSmith it may but this is definitely a series 71 Detroit.
Sounds more bass than a 92. I'm used to the Neoplan sound with a 92.

@@TheCRTman true, but the 92 had better power
@@RRansomSmith Of course.
Build plate shot was at 4:42.... so damn close, but no response from the video maker.
Upon second inspection, it looks more like A565!
I am from Toronto & we had New Flyer D40HF-89s that sounded alot like these buses. Outstanding sound they should've been awarded for it's sound alone
PLEASE help me find a rear bumper cover for my 96 rts novabus
Me acuerdo de las RTS de la AMA 1980 Y 1983
Get a new muffler on they. It will sound so smooth Sounds awesome now don’t get me wrong.

Se le puede montar un rolo a la derecha cerca de la ventana contigua a la puerta de entrada
this bus has an Allison V-730 3-Speed Automatic Transmission.
😎all I can say to THAT is RND21
This MTA/RTS2 rocks. I grew up on them shizzles. All it needs is a turbo and we in the hiz-ouse.
Actually, it's 4-on-the-florr.
nothing better than the sound of a 6V92 engine along the highway.
With V730 3-speed trans on those 1980 buses.:)
….the early production where 6V and 8V series 71 Detroit/s but later came the 92 series with better fuel performance.
This sounds like a 92
This is a 92

2 door Suburban.

Transit bus, the suburban is with only one door
Baldorioty? ?
V
Are there any female operators driving these novas in puerto rico as well? Just wondering cuz its always males
im pretty sure this is not a nova
Nope! It's the original GMC.
deon 5156. Yes, there are.
BusTV Chan it's a GMC RTS .
It reminds me of the ones Jefferson Transit had in 1978 before New Orleans had theirs between 1979 and 1980.
