Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Great old "house-car"! --- Might have been an old moving van they converted. And it looks like they had pretty much all they needed at the time to get by back in the day. Right down to the state-of-the-art, on-board music and entertainment center. AKA...a fiddle.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Ahhh...I think I can successfully second that --- Roger the decades to completion. We will do our best to keep you entertained Jack. It is the least we can do given all the joy you have provided us.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus

You have been doing such exceptional work as to keep us all glued to this thread and right about now you gotta' be feeling pretty goo...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Boy Howdy! --- That is one SWEET lookin' Sub Jack! I'd have a mighty hard time letting go of a nice old gal like that. And given that they aren't making any more that have that much class must make it even harder.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Hey Jack --- thanks for the walk-thru. Lord knows I'm gonna need all the help I can get on this little chore. Just had the new axle dropped off today and it is a monster. Course, the original is a beastie too, but the Dana just looks more intimidating. Did get a couple of wheel dollies. They made r...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Have a great time Jack. And say hello to Yogi & Booboo for me. Also, a reminder to all... I do hope everyone here in the US is making the most of some quality time this Memorial Day weekend. Family, friends, fun and possibly all around a grill loaded with great eats. But please take a moment to ...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Looks almost ready to move into Jack --- Getting closer by the day. Me...I'm still trying to figure out how to wrangle that Dana 80 into my shop, let alone how to swap it out. May actually have a week or two coming up to get a little work done.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Building a bus from ancient iron parts is indeed a voyage of discovery --- There are times when I think to myself..." they don't build'em like they used to "...and it is a complement to old school engineering. At other times I think the same thing but it translates more like..." WTF ...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Hey Jack --- you could just whip out a pair of these...

Piece-O'-Cake. And a nice Industrial Age look to boot.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Hey Jack --- That bumper is just way to classy to be takin' any unnecessary bumps! Hope you are getting "back-up" camera.

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Ya, I hear ya Jack...bumpers were made to be bumped back in the olden days --- And although I have no doubt you are gonna be on the road well ahead of me, I agree we should instigate an "Old Skool Bus-In" somewhere, sometime in the not too distant future. I'm picturing a coupla' dozen or ...

Re: 1935 Chevy school bus
Typically cool...typically Jack on the solutions! --- You might take a look at cutting down a standard '41-46 bumper. They are plenty stout and have the right look. With a little snipping and grinding I think they would look great as a two-piece arrangement. I found a spare for mine on Ebay pretty ...
