Title: Need help tracing GM 4905 Vin #
Post by: trailblazer2 on April 05, 2008, 10:06:06 AM

Well, after many months of searching,I think I have found my friend a Bus to convert! He called me this morning,ready to adopt his dream home(1971 GM 4905). He and I ???both are curious,as to where this unit began at! I know that there is a way to trace it somehow;but where? The vin is #PD 4905-256,Probably a early version? Any help would be greatly appreciated,and will start the wheels rolling!

www.omot.org The Ohio Museum of Bus Transportation. That site has GM production lists for all GM coaches.
