Details
The GM New Look bus (nicknamed "Fishbowl" for its six-piece rounded windshield) is a transit bus introduced in 1959 by General Motors and produced until 1986. Like GM's over-the- road buses, including the Greyhound Scenicruiser, the air- sprung New Look did not have a traditional ladder frame. Instead it used an airplane-like stressed-skin construction in which an aluminum riveted skin supported the weight of the bus. The wooden floor kept the bus' shape. The engine cradle was hung off the back of the roof. As a result, the GM New Look weighed significantly less than competitors' city buses. The design is listed as U.S. Patent D182,998 by Roland E. Gegoux and William P. Strong. 44,484 New Look buses were built over the production lifespan, of which 33,413 were built in the U.S. and 11,071 were built in Canada (GM Diesel Division). Separated by general type, the production figures comprised 510 29-foot city buses (all U.S.-built); 9,355 35-foot city buses (7,804 U.S.-built, 1,551 Canadian); 31,348 40-foot city buses (22,034 U.S., 9,314 Canadian) and 3,271 suburban coaches (of which only 206 were built in Canada).
