Just came across your posting! I can furnish a little FYI on the bus from my memory bank! First, it is a PD-4104. The engine is a 6-71 and turns CCW. You'll need to know this if you ever have to replace the starter, for example. It was manufactured with 12 volt positive ground, but may well have been converted to negative ground, which is pretty easy, and cheap if you have a generator, not so cheap if you have an alternator. There is a battery cut off switch in the baggage compartment, just to the forward side of the battery compartment. To engage reverse, shift into first gear, push and hold the REV button, and shift into second. This should put you into reverse. The reverse solenoid on the transmission is very similar to a starter solenoid. If the engine is running, the air compressor will be turning. If you get no air then, check the air governor on the compressor. This is what tells the compressor when to pump or not. Compressor is on your right, mounted to the engine, about 4' up from ground level.
Isaac you are SOOOO LUCKY the engine didn't runaway ! These Detroits have a habit of the injectors being stuck for sitting so long. Once they're stuck open it revs to the moon until it dies or you suffocate the engine in time.
@@danielventura8073 those old 2 stroke detroits, or "screaming jimmies" as they were called back in the day, were incredible engines. super easy to maintain, and very reliable. the aforementioned sticking injector was about the only real issue they ever had as long as they were maintained. ive rebuilt several over the years, and theyre a joy to work on.
I cannot put into words how beautiful that bus is. Screw van-life...vintage bus-life would be so amazing. The things I’d do to be able to road trip that around the country.
My old man has one, it's okay, but they're a pain to drive in or too near town. Or over a mountain pass. Engine's a hassle to work on, and there's a house worth of wiring snaking all over the bus. He keeps all the windows covered in heat reflective foam insulation shutters just to keep from losing all his heat, and that's after he took most of them out and welded over them. Plenty of room, though. I want him to add a roof porch but he's pretty resistant.
All you restoration guys are amazing! I admire that you guys find old pieces of junk and fix em up by hard work and using your brains, I really do love it! And so many guys around the country who use their hands and don't mind getting them dirty! Like my brother, buying old crappy houses for a song, and fixing em up to be beauties, really admire that. I SALUTE YOU!
@@brettdearing2898 Why don't you go back to watching a couple more vids on grease monkey garage channel so you can learn a couple more words and sound like you know what your talking about.
Those 4 gauges on the front dash are leveling valves for your air suspension , you have a air bag on all 4 corners of the bus and you can adjust how much air pressure you put in each air bag , to raise and lower the suspension by turning each one of those black knobs right below each gauge on the dash , you either have to push in and turn at the same time or you pull out on the black knob and turn at the same time i can't remember i hope that helps.
I absolutely love this bus I hope you keep it but if you don't somebody's going to be really happy with it having fun road trips and making some exceptionally great memories 👍👍👍
Dude you should keep it , turn it into a cars and camera touring bus and get some decals made promotional bus use to sell merch at events , let’s face it could also pull a huge trailer with all your toys in , would be pretty sweet , just my thoughts 💭
@@paxhumana2015 Trust me it was not there from the factory. And its only a class 3 hitch. You can flat tow a small car but its not going to haul no huge trailer with it. And even towing a small car this bus will be lucky to not be doing 35mph climbing even modest hills. While the old 2 stroke diesels were dependable as hell they are not all that powerful.
@@davefroman4700 You're right, right now it should only be towing a car on all four wheels, even if the hitch is strong, but while they don't make a lot of power they do make a good bit of torque. With keeping the conversion itself light, a small turbo (or big one with turbo pistons), some bigger injectors, a bigger radiator, and a hitch that reaches all the way under the cradle to the torque rod mounts (so it can actually handle some tongue weight) and it could probably pull 5k or more on a trailer. Still gonna be in low gear on hills, but so are the semis, and a sprayer on the radiator wouldn't hurt either.
Boy does this thing bring back memories. Giving up my age a bit but I drove an GMC-04 back in the late 70's. What a great old rig that is! Those Detroit straight 6's just ran and ran. I think it may be a 6-71. Quite the power steering whine you got there! But I'd take that over the no power steering one that I drove! I had forearms like Popeye! LOL! If it has a spare tire, the front bumper folds down and it's there.
My dad bought one just like that back in the early 80's. It even had the same supercharged 6V71 Detroit Diesel with an automatic Allison transmission. It was a 40' city bus that he also converted into a motor home. You should keep it and refurbish it as a Cars and Cameras project and use it when you travel around. It has enough power to pull a nice big utility trailer to put the bikes and tools in.
The Blue Bus is calling us. The Blue Bus is calling us. Driver Where You Takin Us? (The Doors lyrics to The End) Hopefully This Is Not the End! Kidding. What a great bus! Complete with a little friend in the bedroom closet! Ha! Enjoyable video. Take her out for a good spin. Thanks for sharing.
Cool bus. A little scrubbing and fumigation would turn it into a nice cozy home. Has a boat cabin feel in the bedroom/ bathroom area. Someone spent some serious money on the conversion way back when. You should have no trouble selling it. That was one healthy looking mouse!
Keep the bus, get it fixed up, use it as the Cars and Cameras tour hauler. Travel across the country in the coach and enjoy the trip along the way. Plus, more content for both channels.
That's not nessesary the luggage stowege below the inside floor would hold quite a bit. and a because it has a ball hitch a small utility behind it would work good. there's no need to tear up the inside of it.
Wow. Just WOW....You are so LUCKY that old Detroit didnt have stuck injectors. And TOOK OFF on you. LoL..When those old Detroits set You have to pull the valve covers and check the racks to make sure there not stuck wide open..That is a Sweet old bus. I just hope there will be a clutch left in it when your done moving it...LOL...
That was actually a really nice bus conversion at one point. Probably done in the 70's or 80's. That mouse was actually pretty cute. He looked big and healthy.
I remember seeing this on Marketplace a few years ago. Your friend must have had it for sale before he passed. I absolutely love it and with a little updating it would be a really fun road tripper.
WOW this is awesome! I did the artwork on the bus years ago, and have not seen the bus since the owners passed away. I was saddened buy that because Wade and Elouise were very nice folks. They lived about 10 miles from me in Newport. Glad someone got that will take care of it and use it.
@@isaacitllbefine7231 They were repainting the whole bus trying to get it ready for use, and wanted some murals on it. They left it up to me to do just that. They had a friend of theirs Lyle Lewis help them paint the bus and he knew I airbrushed. There is a little secret on one of the panels (the deer scene) there is a bunny hiding in the grass. It is kind of my signature Easter egg if you will. I can send you my phone number if you like and we can talk about it in better detail. I am glad you are stoked about having the bus and not just going to scrap it. I was told they took that bus all over the US.

You need to make the back half of that a space for mini bikes and go-karts. Car's and Camera's over the road rig!
