Wow....Just wow.

That front suspension setup is the cats ass. Wouldnt mind having one for a future build.

You think something like that is possible for a bus?

ANTHING is possible, you just need a brain, some time, some money, and maybe a touch of crazy.

The only thing that would make the bus conversion tough is the steering. The rack would be two feet behind the steering column.

This is the latest purchase. Its called an 02M, and it's a 6 speed tranny that came in a 20th Anniversary GTi. These things can handle 600hp, I talked to a guy back east that has been putting over 800hp through this, bone stock except for a Peloquin LSD. I didn't want to keep working with the 02A I have now, they'll break with only 200hp.

Still in the body shop otherwise.
