Welcome Parker.

Parker, welcome! Looks like a good find! If I were you, and being only 4 years older than you and just getting my bus last fall, I can totally relate . If all the parts are there, I would just get that bus rolling. Just the safety/mechanical aspect can take all summer. I would love to resto my 63 but I dont have the time/money to do so now. For me, just getting the mechanical stuff down has been a good challenge. Metal panels are replaceable. Midnight T-bell runs with your friends sitting in lawn chairs in the back (my bus doesnt have back seats) arent replaceable lol !
Best of luck!!!

Welcome to your new favorite place to spend time instead of doing homework!

Good call Rick. Tires, brakes, driveline, lights.

There are plenty of people who roll around flintstone style. No shame in it! Some ladies like it crusty and rusty, except mine of course...
