Re: azratrods '85 Blue Bird/GMC Shorty

got the rear 3 rows removed and the second row removed over the weekend. it wasnt to bad of a job. it was a little time consuming because i did it by myself. i had to clamp the bolt heads inside the bus, then climb under the bus and get the nuts off. i only had 2 clamps so it took a little while. im thinking about remounting the seats facing each other in the rear, or just using some couches from a yard sale or goodwill.
