It's not for sale, but it sits at the BGA used bus lot in Hudson, Florida. |

Here's a 1958 GMC Thomas parked out in the desert. It's obviously retired.

1959 Ford/Carpenter: I took these pics back in the mid 80's. The bus had just finished being restored and it had that brand new look to it. I know the owner of the bus and even though he had some nice classic cars,this is what he loved the most. Sadly,this bus burned in a garage fire at the owners house last year. The owners house was not touched but the garage and everything in it was a total loss. The fire was on my bus route and it was very hard to see theburned,twisted remains of what was once a beautiful classic school bus.

What a nice surprise to see that beautiful Carpenter Ford again! I remember seeing those pics of that bus years ago here on the forums. That is not good news though to hear that the bus was destroyed in a fire. There are so few of those classics left! Thanks for sharing! |

| I really like that IH/Superior. I always thought Superior made a beautiful coach back in the 60's. |

Which engine did this Ford conventional chassis have? |
