1948 Chevy School Bus

Image
    I bet you would never miss a day of school if your bus looked like this ! This was seven year custom build with  no expense spared. The body went through a frame-off restoration . For power a 355 C.I. small block Chevy is equipped with a Blower Shop 8-71 supercharger .  Mixing the go juice is a pair of  Edelbrock carburetors topped off with a MR.Gasket scoop . The exhaust exits the aluminum heads through  Hedman Headers and flow through three inch tubing ending at the rear bumper.  A Turbo-400 automatic transmission handles the gear shifts .       Modern touches include power steering, & power disk brakes.    The interior features gray tweed upholstery, a Vintage Air hvac- system has been hidden . Classic Instruments gauges fill the factory dash board , while a tilt steering column and vintage looking steering wheel blend form and function.                                  This Hot Rod bus rides on custom 16 inch chrome wheels with high-speed rated radial tires.
