Sharky, have not forgot about the bumper peices. Have not been up in the area yet. But now my thought about tires. The 12R 22.5 tires are hard to find on the road!!!

A strange GMC bus.

Heres a early 50's bus that was parked down the road from me for a few weeks. The guy lives in Temecula, CA. The water outlet on the radiator was made of aluminum and rotted out and he leaked out all the water. It has a Detroit Diesel 6-53 I think. It was a "small" 6 cylinder. There was a ...
