GM "Silversides". Most likely a PD4104. One of the most beautiful buses ever in my book.

Someone down the street from me growing up had something similar as a camper. Absolutely beautiful from the street. I have no idea what it was like up close or inside, though.

It looked super clean from the curb as well and the open storage bays and newer ac on the roof make it seem like its in use currently . always great to see a classic up and running . I think this may be taking my vote for best lookin bus I've ever seen !

You should take a look on the internet there's some really nice looking silversides restored on the Google's there's probably going to be a silver side Jamberry here coming up shortly that will be also on the internets, they actually have a parade wherever they go and it's pretty awesome.
