But the bus will always be a money pit that’s why the school division’s dump them. They’re used up worn out and not worth the time money and effort. Had a couple of friends make motor homes out of them, all had the same comment “Never again”. Better off finding an older low mileage 3 or 5 ton grain truck, FIL sold one with 55,000 on it 79 chev 350 split rear axle $3500. Sell the box and hoist and you have a good rolling chassis

Good idea on the old grain truck. I bought an old school bus years ago with a International V8 diesel and put over 5,000 miles on it with no problems but the new buses with all the pollution control garbage is not good. Have to strip all that off and let the engine breath to make it worth it.

It’s not so much engines, my friends found axle bearings, steering parts, rear ends, transmissions, etc, etc. just two bitting them to death. If you have a seasonal lot at the lake and limped it out there and home twice a year ok but if your wanting to haul your car around to shows, I would look for something a little better. My opinion
My first attempt at a mortise and tenon joint, kind off rough but learned a lot
