A Little #9830 History
These were standard wide body transit style with a single door. they were used for commuter work in the bay area of San Francisco. Geared to do 65 MPH, and had the small differential. I enjoyed this bus because it sure to get into the fast lane and do its thing. I updated the injectors so it ran very well.
