The Incredible Partridge Family Bus Encounter

On a lone, sunny, winding road that meanders around the countryside of upstate New York sits the immaculate Original 1957 Chevy School Bus that was used on many a Rock Tour in the 1970s. Yes, folks that there is the Partridge Family bus from yesteryear. Put into use in early 1971 by a family of Pop Superstars the world has not known the likes of since. Maybe you too will come across a specatular antique such as this on the next Tubing Tuesday.

Real bus was turned in to a taco stand, then it sat in disrepair and then scrapped. So to my knowledge its been scrapped. I hate that I really love the look of that old bus.

the funny part of this video is that the poster acknowledges in his/her description that the real PF bus was a Chevy, but the bus in the video has GMC in big letters on the grille.

not the original, as many of you have already figured out. Just look at any screen shot from the series, and you will see the difference. It's not even close. It's an absolute shame that the original was not preserved.

I saw the same bus up in the Catskills and saw the owner. He told me that it was used on the show. It is an original Bus.

The original coach has long been gone, crushed in a salvage yard. It was a '57 30 foot chevy 6800 with a superior coach. Don't remember engine specs. I have a '57 30 foot carpenter coach, close but front windshield slightly altered and windows different basically. the Bus pictured is by no means a 57.
