Welcome to the site E/G Bus.

That looks pissah! Only wish I'd have found it before you, being right next door to me and all!
What are your plans for it?

Thanks, don't think it could of lasted to many more snowy Vermont winters in that field! Now that the mechanical repairs are completed, next are the RV systems and electrical.

The engine is a rebuilt late 60's Buick 430 cu in that's running strong. I've replaced the manual tranny with a turbo 400 automatic, and it still has the original 2-speed rear end.

That should be a real good combination for driving.
