ECA,
The mistake in your photo (URL above) is obvious - the bus is not from New Jersey although it might be that the eBay vendor meant that the image was taken there.
In any event, I spotlighted Bee Line # 700 under 'The Buses of Bee Line' a couple of weeks ago as seen below.
Thanks for the find anyway.
Best to you and the family,
WCA
Seen when brand new at its company facility is fleet # 700 - a 1964 Flxible modeled as an FD6V-401-7-UL-AC operating for Bee Line, Inc. of Rockville Centre, New York.
# 700, in a striking version of the company's usual bright red and white livery scheme, was a rare break in tradition for Bee Line being a single door Suburban version with comfortable high back seating and parcel racks in place of standee glasses.
Note that while Ohio Museum of Transportation (OMT) records under 'Flxible FD-35 Suburban Model' indicate that only #700 was delivered to Bee Line, rosters here at BusTalk show a second likeness numbered 701.
However, at the same time an identical model numbered 400 was flagged for and delivered to commonly owned Utility Lines, Inc., of Patchogue, New York and may or may not fit into this puzzle - I will have to allow greater minds to figure this out!
Photo courtesy of 'exbusdriver53' and is available at eBay as item # 221467142362.
