71 bay window bus
by bakertim2 Sun Mar 25, 2012 11:06 pm
Well, I have struck a deal on this bus today.
I'll be picking it up sometime this week I hope. Gonna be a whole new ball game for me. I don't have a lot of experience with these beasts. I have been looking and dreaming of the day I get another bus, but, this wasn't what I had in mind. I'm excited about tackling this one though.

Picked it up today. Got it to the shop. Can't wait to dig into it. It does have some rust issues and some crunch issues. Lots of extra parts. I need a right rear corner. After I look at it a little closer, I may be able to straighten out. Gonna need lots of love.

I've seen some guys buy a bug shell on Friday, engine and pieces on Saturday, and drive it home on Sunday.rpm750 wrote:

Lotsa free advice and help at the show. People were jumping in to help when they realized what these boys were doing.
Could be a lot of fun!
