charlie8575 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I have many fond memories of the Fishbowls from when I would go to Arlington, and later Watertown, and go places with my grandmother on the MBTA around greater Boston. MBTA GM Fishbowl bus 6080 by ck4049 I remember around 1984-85, they started to be replaced by Flyers, which were Canadian buses. They simply did not have the same panache. I'd buy at least one of those just to bring some happy memories back. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curt raitz Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I'd love to see a model of the GMC "FishBowl" or as we called them: "Silversides". Put in many a mile driving these while employed at Santa Clara County Transit in the late 70's to early 80's A model of a GMC "Scenic Cruiser" or more affectionally known as the "Blimp" would be nice, along with an old Trailways Silver Eagle. Drove these in 1973 and 1974 for YoungLife in Colorado. Not a big market out there, but I think they would do OK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
