I just bought a '52 school bus with a 135" wheel-base. It is only 19' overall but built like a tank. I think it is on a 2-ton chassis (just a guess.) It has a 2-speed rear axle (low and lower :-) The original 235 runs great even though the old gas smells like varnish. It has a 4-speed tranny with the brake on the shaft. This old baby is all original and NO rust-through anywhere. I want to either set in on a newer 1-ton chassis or replace the rear end with 1-ton and adapt the front end with pb, ps, 350 and auto. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I will have lots of big truck parts for sale when as soon as I figure out how I am going to upgrade.
Thanks in advance!
