The very nice thing I liked about that bus was the bench seat in front - no split walkway that most bus seem to have. Is that front bench rare? We got a 6.2 Beanville van after that - so that we could drive with heat, although in practice, heat is not really necessary in Colorado winter when the sun is shining. Oh well. After living at Drennan we moved back to rustbelt.
My first car was '54 BelAir 3-speed on column, license plates for rear floorboard. My brother and I split the $50 purchase and drove it quite a bit. The major work I remember was numerous fix of alternator brush bracket. Also at coledg it seems that someone put salt or sugar in the gas tank and I had to drop the tank to rinse the granular stuff out of the system so I could drive 300 miles home. Could that have been crystalized old fuel? I learned stick on the Maverick my brother convinced mom to purchase - nice grabber look-alike. mao _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com All posts are the result of individual contributors and as such, those individuals are responsible for the content of the post.
