This is is the rustiest bus I have ever come across. It was driven from Panama by a 19 year old (I am surprised he made it). It was brought to me to replace the starter, but instead of a pinion gear bushing it had JB Weld in the hole. I could not get another starter in it, and he did not have the money to pay me to R&R the engine to investigate if I could fix it. Instead I bought it off of him for parts.
Anyhow, see if you can show a rustier bus. :D

That one member in new york or somewhere has that one transporter that's super rusty with the slider on with gate hindges. That's probably the rustiest bus I've seen. |

Dang Don, those are both nasty! I have never seen so much undercarriage rust! :shock:
I did come across a bus with a lower windshield area like that. The PO had put a formed block of wood underneath layers of bondo to create a support for the windshield.... :lol: :lol: Even made the lower lip for the seal out of bondo. :shock: |

It's a split, though that is a shite load of rust. Dang. Did that fall off on the trailer trip or did you load it that way? |

Well yes, it was a split... they tend to be the rustiest buses around.

That is a first for me. I have seen the floors rust out towards each door but not in the middle like this. :shock: |
