The last window of the cabin is shorter than the others= 45 seater. The width looks like 96 inches instead of 102 inches. Only five of 45 built had 8 cyl engine, i go for a six. It has air condition=symbol one. 45...096...6...1. Flxible 45096-6-1 . -- Last edit: 2015-02-17 14:02:39 |

Appears to be one of the SCRTD 4300s with electronic destination signs - 1973 Flxible 111DD-D06-1 (same as 45096-6-1, but before the mid-1973 change in model designations). -- Last edit: 2015-02-17 20:48:07 |

The 4300s and 73-7400s (1975 53102-8-1) did after their mid-1980s rebuilding. They had water filled bumpers before then. |

I am convinced about 111DD-DO6-1. Can you give a lesson about another Flxible F2D6V 401-1? What does the letters mean? |

D06 (zero), no O. The FD system, circa 1960-68: F = Flxible 2 = 102 inches wide; nothing = 96 inches wide D = Diesel; P = Propane 6V = Detroit Diesel 6V71; 47 = Detroit Diesel 4-71; 8VC = Cummins 165-285 5 = Built in Evergreen, AL; T = T-Drive; nothing = V-drive & built in Loudonville, OH (except FD47s also built in Evergreen, but no 5) - 31, 33, 35, 40 = length 1 = Transverse mounted engine (all buses) - 1 = Transit; 3 = ?; 7 = Suburban - UL = Luggage Bays; nothing = no luggage bays - AC = Air conditioning; nothing = non-AC. The next model designation, circa 1966-73 is: 1 = Built in Loudonville, OH; 4 = Built in Evergreen, AL (except San Bernardino #800-814 are 411s but were built in Loudonville) 1 = Transit bus (all buses) 1 = Transverse mounted engine (all buses) C = 40 ft; D = 35 ft; G = 31 ft; H = 30 ft C = 102" wide; D = 96" wide - C1 = Cummins 190-265; C3 = Cummins 903; D1 = Detroit Diesel 4-71; D4 = Detroit Diesel 6V71 T-drive; D5 (D05 in 1972-73) = Detroit Diesel 6V71 V-drive; D6 (D06 in 1972-73) = Detroit Diesel 8V71 V-drive - 1 = Air conditioning; nothing = non-AC. |
