I am gonna figure out how to post pics and do that on this project. First mission was getting it off the trailer with limited tools. I am super excited to work on this and am burnt out on restored cars.

tomorrow I am putting a different front end in the bus that rolls and making a stand for the back. Then I am putting it back on the trailer and the trailer will be my make shift frame machine. The drivers side rear has a large buckle and so does the front floor and dog leg is pushed in. Once thats done I can get some help aligning the doors and re-creating door gaps.

My friend Tony owns this bus now. I think he's put more miles on this bus than his entire collection. It was a hard bus to let go of because how cool it looks and the cool original paint dash but it was one of a few bus's I sold to buy the 54 Samba.
