Have you guys been watching "Low Buck Garage"? He's got a very old bus that was
converted to a 6BT. They revived it from storage in CT and drove across the
country to NM. In the newest video he put a roof mount air-conditioner on it.
Pretty interesting stuff.

Funny, as this was one of the featured videos on my Flagstaff RailFan page, so
I had a look. It would appear that “dad” did a lot of kludges on that bus, but
most were done fairly well. The wiring was a little scary, though, and I don’t

I don’t recall what year they made the change to the standard Euro/DIN plug on
head units, but I’m pretty sure it was later. If so, the PO would have hacked

Depends on how the Panasonic was installed. If the factory harness was used
with a proper adapter, then maybe the wiring is mostly intact. More likely, the
