The Av B & East Bway bus company still had Macks going into the early to mid 70's. I drove a yellow cab in the early 70's and definitely remember seeing them.

Very nice indeed!
Love those Macks. And the C49 was my favorite. Yonkers Transit had some of the latest, with the modern front end. They rode like clouds too. Wish one of them could have been saved.

They had leaf springs? The GM old looks were Phiily's first air bag buses, IIRC.

It's doubtful since the poster said they'd start on Monday.
