Nice pics.
That first small Blue Bird oddly looks like a Carpenter though. |

Lookin good, but also, that Thomas logo on the orange and yellow Thomas Inty was put on by hand.... too big, and not in the right place.
Why would someone put the Blue Bird logo and stripe on a Carpenter? Are they that ashamed of their poor Carpenter bus? |

I've heard from a good source that people in South America love Blue Birds. If it does not have a bird and a stripe on the roof, they will not get on the bus.

He explained in another thread about that and "La Parita" is a bird. |

THAT IS CORRECT. THAT SCHOOL BUS "RACE NAME" IS "LA PAJARITA" WICH IN ENGLISH TRANSLATES TO "BIRDIE" (FEMALE BIRD)
OR IS IT THAT BY PLACING A BLUE BIRD LOGO ON THAT ROOF THEY TRY TO RUB-OFF SOME OF THE ISSUES CARPENTER BODIES HAVE WITH ROOF WELDS. |
