That's a Brazilian 6.6L turbo diesel. I have one and LOVE it. VERY robust. Put Prolong in the engine oil, Marvel Mystery Oil in the fuel and she'll LAST a loooong time! Look at my build in short bus "Big Mac". She's there.

Gonna be hard to work on the bus with it laying on it's side.

Could be on a really heavy duty roller frame, so that he can get at the undercarriage.

Hi, Bussin', I'm in NE Oklahoma, too, and I went to college in Shawnee. No, not that University, the other one.

 

[Bussin']

Sweet, u got a bus u r working on...

 

[Invisicat]

No, not yet. I'm just starting to learn about it. I hope to get one, though. Been scrounging around here and there, collecting things to build my own little home "someday," and I'm thinking a bus conversion might be a way to make that happen quicker. I picked up a bi-fold door somebody was throwing out today. It's lightweight and the hinges are good--possibly a homemade job originally. I'm sure I can find some kind of use for it.
