The bus requires the following tasks before it can be driven safely on the road the distance you indicated: • Attach left rear brake chamber and hook up labeled hoses to it insuring clearance to left rear leaf spring; • Attach last drive line segment that slips on and bolt it to differential, six bolts under bus, this segment was cut to length and balanced; • Adapt torsion bar located under bus to rear axel and frame; • Lower bus to ground off blocks, 10-20 ton jack needed; • Connect diesel engine shut off cable from panel to engine; • Adapt throttle cable from pedal to engine pump; • Adapt radiator shell to radiator and front frame and attach hoses to engine. • Check radiator to engine hose connections and plug any heater outlets, fill radiator with anti-freeze; • Insure that all lines to transmission cooler and air brake system are secure; • Assure that air filter is clean; • Charge battery bank and start engine; • Back up bus and test brakes; • Adapt fender and hood assembly to bus • Wire up light system and test; • Secure instrument panel and install driver's seat. • Test drive bus. This project was stopped four years ago, all materials and tools necessary for completion were there.
