Title: cutting up a bus..anyone need parts?
Post by: Alp on May 01, 2012, 09:31:50 AM
I picked up a 59 panel bus that is pretty rotten.  Anyone need parts?  I am planning to send this to the dump this week so speak up quickly.

Does it have the round spring steel shift rod bushing spring still in the front cross member? If so and it's usable I'm in desperate need for one on my barndoor.

dog legs are pretty rusty so I doubt they are useable.

I liked when the driveway was full of wrecks and you had the cut up baywindow on the front lawn!

I am not in the best part of town but it is a pretty good one.  Someone has to let the new immigrants see how we live in Canada.

I am looking for the metal surrounding the engine cooling tin, and the rear removible piece

Regards,
Jeff

engine tin area still there but the rear section is gone.  How much do you need and where?
Title: Re: cutting up a bus..anyone need parts?
Post by: jefftrish on May 07, 2012, 10:04:40 PM
Width to the wheel wells, and a inch or two behind the half moon shape, where the back engine tin seals too. I hope I am describing it right. Thank you for the quick reply. I could come and cut it, if you like.

 I would like to save the rear mounts, so its all one piece


Thanks,
Jeff
Bad pic sorry
