    Default Summer Project #1 for Tacomas747: 1936 Ford Schoolbus with Cummins 5.9 NV4500

    Well, my sister has a hairbrained idea to start a food vending business, she had thoughts of using the 'normal' step van/box truck, or maybe a shortbus. Well, we ran across this, she fell in love with it for the obvious reasons, it's COOL. Her plan (and reason for building this bus instead of a step van) is the have a 'hold' on the high-end weddings and such, to do catering to those type events, as well as car shows and the normal around-town stuff during the week. It will definetly take ALOT of work and ALOT of money, but I feel once it's done she will have a great business, as the bus is a definite eye catcher which means everyone will remember it. I think the catering at special events will be the main money maker as opposed to the day-to-day type of stuff.

    We went and picked it up on Thursday 6/24/2012, this is what it looked like when we got it:
