This bus came from Arizona and is now in our shop getting restored. We started on it a few weeks back. Stay tuned for more.

Took it in to get the underside blasted. Then we found a little more rust in the inner valence and decided to take the nose off. Cleaned it all up, then POR-15 to seal it really good. Now putting it back together.

Yes we are going to put the OG nose back on. Noticed some rust in the inner valance and wanted to open it up and see what was going on. There wasn't much at all. We patch welded a few pieces then cleaned it up and Por-15 to seal it for good. I was able to straiten the nose out in the process so it worked out in both ways.

More progress was made. We are a few more steps away from all the metal work being completed. Hope to start body and paint soon.

That would be a lot of fun restoring it! It looks pretty straight and a perfect candidate for a car show bus! Keep us posted!

This one is all but wrapped up as for the metal work. Now we need to start the body and paint. We have a few other projects that have to go before this one. So if anyone is interested in a 15 window that all the metal work has been completed, then give me a call.
