Ok, I went on line to get some pics to give a general idea of what the exterior looks like. So here's the three pics (kinda cobble them together in your mind). The first is the front (no need to be creative), the second is the length (more or less), and the third is where the handicapped door is located (just imagine a single door opening to the rear instead of two doors split). It's the best I can do in creative mode. The body is by Ward, chassis is by Ford.

Remember when pictures were a physical object you could hold in your hand? A solid representation of visual reality on light-sensitive paper that was dipped in emulsions, after having a negative image shone thru celluloid onto it.
Sure, you couldn't upload them onto the computer easily, but you had that record for all times!

At least until that time Harvey ambled in, and decided to bide a wee...

Where they painted in gouache? Just trying to envision, "flying colors" in a hurricane.

The shorter handicapped bus is close to Mac, but much shorter. I figure about 10 feet shorter or so. The bodies of both buses are the same design, same front door, roof line, and whatnot because they are both Ward bodies from 1989. The length is the only difference. Hope this helps.

Seriously?
The pix are representative of what Big Mac looks like, which should be sufficient to your visualization needs.
I have never been witness to anyone working harder than this, all in order to give something of value away...

Who’s killing you... me??? Oh no.. sooo sorry. I don’t blame anyone for not having patience with. I know, I ask many “stupid” questions. But I’m trying very hard not to!

After all, I did read the bylaws, or part of your commandments, where it specifically said, “No stupid questions.” So please do note, I’m trying very hard to be respectful and not ask any “stupid question.”

Please accept my apologies!

It's not you, but ECCB I was referring to. We're always going back and forth with each other. Sorry you got caught in the collateral damage..... LOL....
