I will say, this bus has (had) more Grateful Dead stickers than any bus I've seen.

Here are some pictures...

The jouyney and the beginning of cleaning -

Sean posted the loading pictures. A big thanks to Dennis and Sean for the help. Without them I would never be able to have it loaded so quick, the front beam is farquaed!

Coming off the trailer.

It was skanky inside and I started cleaning. I think a goat was living in it! Sean my have a picture of the filth.

The wire in the picture is the battery cable, notice the lack of a grommet around the hole punched in the bulkhead.

Floors are clean.

Looks better after a quick cleaning.

The garbage can full of funk and about a mile of wire from a kustom stereo and sweet mood lighting system.

Will get more up soon.

The reason for the no start during the extraction was a gummed up pump. It was pretty skanky on the outside too, a trip through the parts washer and it looks good now.

Set it up on a vice at work and began flushing with penetrating fluid and let it sit overnight.

Applied reverse polarity power this morning and it spun right up, spun up with poweer in the correct polarity after that too. Will keep running ludbe through it today and install it next week. Hopefully the motor will fire once I get it installed, change the fuel, evap and vacume lines.

Great job Toolbox! keep the pictures coming. Can't wait to see Melissa and Bridget roll up in that thing with you bringing up the rear!

It's a little messy in that picture. I will see if I can get a shot of it after I clean tomorrow.

Kirk,

This is much better. Sometimes I think all I do at work is clean.

A clean, organized office is the sign of a sick mind.

That's your office? I've been in jail cells larger than that.

Ive never been in a jail cell, but it does remind me of a familiar holding tank that I sort of remember.

Bus looks solid, I am going through the same thing with mine, just sent my injectors out. How long has this bus been sitting? My gas was "Turpentine Red"

My desk is in a cube farm on the other side of the building and it is not this clean. This is the control room for the two brake dynos I am in charge of, our 3 bays in the garage are this clean too.

Here is a picture of a dyno similar to ours.
