Vladislav Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Wonder did they put that bus body on the truck chassis or just attached the hood? I lean toward the latter option.

tjc transport Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 i am thinking the hood was grafted to the bus.

JoeH Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 As the bus frame didn't stick out far enough for the front axle I'm going to bet on the bus being grafted to the hood. If I were to build that I'd start with the frame. Easier to graft the bus to a frame than the engine/trans/axle/steering to the bus. May have been a superliner frame that was stretched for the project. Could be new PGAdams rails or something, but I'm betting it's just a stretched truck frame.

41chevy Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 It's just a plain old Bluebird I.H. with a Superliner hood. I have another photo with the hood open. A big let down but I'd keep it if it was offered.

Rob Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I couldn't decide if it were "Bluebird", or "Carpenter" but I think the raised roof is the reason. Worked on a lot of both brands when repairing school busses for Laidlaw. Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

gxbxc Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Who ever put it together was a metal craftsman, because most I have seen have more waves than the ocean where they took out the windows ,and the front end blends perfectly with the superliner hood .

Freightrain Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) Now I see the Bluebird in it. That raised roof had me disconbobulated, and knew it wasn't a std school bus. They stretched the front frame rails and moved the axle forward and reskinned the lower sides of the bus to remove the wheelwells.
