Post What Bus Is This??

Hi champions,

I would really, REALLY like to know the make and model of this American style school-bus, so if anyone could pretty-please help, it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having trouble finding exact details of this bus, and I really do need info so I can find blueprints for it hopefully on here. I want to make a bus LIKE this, but I need somewhere to start, and this bus is what I want to base my model off.

Also, I know this'd be totally rare, but any up-close references of a bus roughly like this one would be also appreciated.

Thanks,

I can't find prints anywhere, so if nobody has a clue, I might jsut try making blueprints of the school-bus in FlatOut2 :-P

Catlin, if you're weren't a dude (or at least looked like Halle Berry), I'd kiss you!!

This is almost what I need. I'll edit it a bit, then use the bus in FlatOut2 as reference. Thanks fo yo help chief.

Also, if anyone else has blueprints or references of this style of bus, swing 'em my way!!

Don't worry Catlin, I'm sure you're useless in other areas as well as this one :-)

That appears to be a Carpenter school bus body on Ford chassis.

I found the history of the Carpenter company and a few pictures, but no useful drawings.

Check eBay for sales brochures.


Are you looking for information specific to that particular bus, or school buses in general?
