Title: skoolie(labor of love)

This is not at all to downplay what you guys do to make your buses what they are via hard work and much time.
Most people would have junked a skoolie this old.

OMG.  Old Runt is going to love this one. I can see him drooling now comparing it to his! :-)

Looking at some of the later pictures, that is an automatic transmission isn't it? I would find it hard to believe that they went to all of that work and kept some sort of stick shift albeit a new one? I think the engine is a CHEVROLET big block.

Fun to see.  The body is the next generation (newer than mine) Superior.  Note the riveted on rub rails -- mine are stamped into the body panel and are not as strong as the later ones.  I wonder if they are going to do anything else to the inside?  Jack
