Craigslist has this real cool '65 Bristol bus listed for sale. Maybe somebody can catch the picture and post it here?
It's a Double decker, Diesel engine, manual transmission.

Wow, I wish it were closer to me, I think it would make a very attractive housebus!! Swap in a IH466DT, maby an Allison MT643, and a different rear axle for more highway speed.

I looked at her yesterday - missing upper front glass - lots of water damage & rust and the flooring is very soft ( buckled badly on lower deck) so alot of work needed . The pics don't show any of that .
Hope everybody is doing well - I 'm keeping a low profile & hoping for sunnier
days .
Peace- Joanne

It is no suprise to find that the pictures don't show some of the more ugly facts- most folks seem to forget to show everything, the good and the bad when trying to sell something.
That's why it is always good to see it in person and make an inspection when possible! Thanks for the report Joanne!

I was disappointed when I saw the shape she was in - first time I've been able to get out in awhile & was hoping for a sign ... but tomorrow is a new day. Anyway you would have to be on the midget side for this one ( fine for me but if you are over 5'6" forget about it )
even has a sign inside - Mind your head when standing!!!
till later D - be safe
