    Next time try soaking the wheels in very hot water then pry them off the axle.

    Nice result! I'm not surprised you had issues finding the correct colour scheme, apparently Greyhound themselves used 3 or 4 different liveries on the Scenicruiser during the 20 years they ran them in service. As for red versions I believe they might have been really late manufacture toys after Greyhound sold a bunch of the real ones to Trailways in the 70's.

    Beautiful. I’m surprised you didn’t color the the bottom and the lettering in chrome

    Almost reminds me of the Old Matchbox Version only bigger.

    Nice. I have one. Yours is in better shape than mine. Mine also has no axles. Just molded pins for the wheels. Do not know if mine is newer or older than yours. Nice job.

    Do you think that dunking the whole bus in Lime Out would have dissolved a lot of that corrosion?

      Probaby, but the thought makes me nervous. I would have little control and it would eat away some of the body. Also, making sure all of the inside was neutralized would be tough.

    I've got one of these that a friend of my grandmother gave me about 25 years ago (along with a W. German "Marklin" VW Beetle) . Mine still has about 75% of the paint, so I'm going to leave it alone.
    The axle attachment on mine is different though as they're not exposed on the bottom like yours. Same bus, different production run maybe?
