Short bus anyone...?

Well, it's not a Ford, exactly, but what seems to be a really nice condition late 50's International, which is almost as good. I know there's a lot of cornbinder folks here so if you know someone who might be interested have them get a hold of me. I'll hook them up with the right people. A friend of mine does estate sales and this was at one she was doing today. She didn't have a price tag but I think a guy could grab it up pretty reasonable.

Cool bus. Is the body aluminum as I don't see any rust on it? Good luck finding that curved rear window that's cracked.

Were the rims on those old binders a replacement for the widowmakers? I was at the JY the other day and saw another bus with 20 inch rims I think. Didn't have a tapemeasure with which unusual. I could pick up the rear duals pretty cheap if they would work.

What an ugly stepchild. But if the rest is as good
as that hood fits than it is in great shape.

Gotta look at the inner beauty, like when I saw my truck for the first time.

Heah, it looks like they already have the wall paper for the headliner in the box behind it. What more could you ask for.
