The Death of a Bus

[Steve]

That makes me sick, what a good looking bus.

[bus-ted]

My sentiments exactly... what a shame.

I started watching it but I just Couldn't. That poor bus would have made a great conversion for someone.

Looks like a Gillig 636, CAT 3208 pusher. Same model as my 2 buses. I believe CA has a program where money is given to districts to replace buses with new, clean burning models. I think if they take the money, the bus replaced has to die. I've seen some ads stating the vehicle can't be registered in CA, so that may also be an option. Sad, especially for us fans of old classic iron.

I dont see why they couldnt just replace the engine and keep the body.

Wonder if YOU will look that good at 60! I sure as heck won't.

Arnold is in better shape at 60+ than most people (and I unfortunately include myself here) are at half that age. (And that's a deliberately unflattering photo.)

My wife may still look good at 60, but I don't expect I will. (Heck, I was going bald at about 25.)
