Todd B Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 I saw this truck today in Appleton WI Quote
Merle Coggins Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Very Cool. Great find Todd. BTW... how was your Luau this weekend. I'm sorry I couldn't make it. Quote
Todd B Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Posted August 21, 2012 It was a blast, cooked a 150# pig, fed 120 people and the weather was awesome. It was a great group of freinds and family and everyone seemed to have a great time. We are planning to do a Luau every 2 years. (too much work for every year) I am going to get a hold of the bus owner and see if he would like to do the Iola trip next July. Quote
Todd B Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Posted August 21, 2012 I forgot to mention that the dash of the school bus was the 48-50 style. The doors were locked so I could not get a picture of it. Quote

Todd B Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Posted August 21, 2012 I make awesome steak on the grill!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Dan Babb Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Is that a custom bus or did they have the "short bus" option for schools way back in 51? Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 you actually think you gonna get someone to admit riding the short bus back in those days.. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 For you "short bus" guys... I saw this one today just north of Germantown, at Rightway Bus Services. Not the best pic. I just pulled ever on the narrow shoulder and snapped a quick pic with my phone. Merle Quote
Desotodav Posted August 29, 2012 Report Posted August 29, 2012 I was chatting with a nice fella with links to the bus industry (much like myself) this morning and he sent me a few old photos of old Oz MOPAR buses. I thought that you guys might enjoy seeing them. He send me pics of some old Inter buses as well (which I have not attached). 1st photo is a Dodge, and 2nd and 3rd photos are a Desoto.

Desotodav Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 They certainly are cool looking old rigs. I guess they would have had the row of doors on the other side for you guys in the States. Here's the Inter's Ed... Desotodav Quote
Young Ed Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 That would be an L series with the toothy grill 50-52 and the second is a 56. Assuming they follow the US lineup. Quote
