Love this wheel. Is it original to the bus? Did you refinish this wheel? When I got my bus, I placed all of the wheels together and one was slightly less faded and not covered with dirt/grease. I decided that it must have been the spare. Love the rusty bolt too. |

The rim is from a very nice set of five I got at the Charlotte Transporter Show a couple of years ago. They were all blasted, powder coated black, and painted silver white on the outward facing side. The tire is a new Coker Firestone 6.40-15. The spare tire nut is not rusty, that's patina!

After Greg and Clara visited for the Charlotte Transporter Show, we did some more interior work to the bus. Finished the door cards and front cab roof panels. I thought I'd post some photos of the new interior.
Clara's Uber Interior Panels are extremely nice. Here are some shots:

Just keeps getting better and better!

That bus is off the hook! For sure ranks as one of the most interesting ones I've seen.

Isn't it? X me 2.
If summer, that scene screams, stacked-full-of-ice tub on the cargo mat with drinks and, "come on in".
If snow and winter, it shouts, "come on in" with a rip-roaring inferno on a three-legged fire-pit shooting sparks out the opening. |

Love your bus, John. I really should have a set of those panels made. It looks great like that.

I'm spoiled, I live close enough to John that I see it all the time at local (and not so local) events. It really is as good as the internet makes it look.
