School buses can take on a whole new life after they're retired from student transportation service.

In Harker Heights, Texas, an elementary school teacher transformed a school bus into a classroom on wheels, where she teaches art and cultural classes.

And in North Carolina, a group of pupil transportation people have put together an innovative exhibit in an old school bus that shows how much school bus seats have changed over the past 60 years.

We at SBF have put together a new photo gallery featuring shots of other buses that have been painted and reconstructed for a variety of purposes, from racing to shuttling people for safari tours, and more.
