Promotional And Informational Video For The Chevrolet Motor Division’s (Of General Motors) Medium-Duty Trucks For The 1986 Model Year, Including The Conventional-Style School Bus Chassis And Cowl.

The School Bus Chassis & Cowl in this video is of the 1967-1973 “Action Line” generation of GM Trucks, which General Motors had intentionally kept in production specifically for their School Bus Chassis & Cowl until 1984, when the School Bus Chassis & Cowl in the 1973-1991 bodystyle would finally make it’s debut; 11 years after the 1973-1991 bodystyle had debuted for the other Medium-Duty Trucks, the Light-Duty Pickup Trucks, Suburban, and K-5 Blazer/Jimmy.

The School Bus Chassis & Cowl in this video is also fitted with the Thomas Conventional-style body, equipped with the Four-Light System (as opposed to the Eight-Light System that would become common in later years, well into the present day).

The School Bus Chassis & Cowl in the 1973-1991 bodystyle would continue into production until 1991, when the GMT530 Chassis & Cowl, available solely and exclusively to Blue Bird as the result of an agreement that General Motors and Blue Bird had signed in circa the late 1980’s-early 1990’s; effective beginning with the 1992 model year; and would continue as the very last School Bus Chassis & Cowl that General Motors would produce, to date, until the 2003 model year.
