Ace-Garageguy Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 I don't know anything about this rig, other than the trailer appears to possibly have been made from an old bus. I like the looks anyway. Anybody here know what the tractor is?
ARTEMIS1759 Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 (edited) You know...I have seen this pic before. Upon further examination...look up vintage school buses or vintage buses and find the frontend that matches. It is probably something like a greyhound or trailways judging from the sign space on the roof. I think someone had an assload of buses and hacked them together IMHO.PS...check International Harvester buses. Edited March 15, 2017 by ARTEMIS1759
disabled modeler Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 That is COOL..! id love to build some campers/motorhomes.

Anybody here know what the tractor is? Not sure, but it looks like right hand drive. Is that a steering wheel on the right side?
Ace-Garageguy Posted March 16, 2017 Author Posted March 16, 2017 ... it looks like right hand drive. Is that a steering wheel on the right side?Good call. One thing I forgot to mention is that I'm pretty sure the photo was shot in Australia.
bamadon Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Good call. One thing I forgot to mention is that I'm pretty sure the photo was shot in Australia.Looking a little further, it appears to be an Australian trailer bus. There's a bit of information about them on the internet. Even a site called busaustralia with a forum thread about them.

Anybody here know what the tractor is? This got my interest up as being a bit different. I came on this page that seems to be a same bus. It's said to be a 40's White in Australia. Said to have been restored in Brisbane in 2008. http://www.bus-and-coach-photos.com/picture/number703.asp
lapazleo Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) I thought it appeared to be based on a 40s White cabover. The winged emblem above the grille and wheel style. Edited March 16, 2017 by lapazleo
rel14 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Tractor looks like the front part of the Bus. Maybe a old bluebird bus?
misterNNL Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Anyone brave enough to attempt a build based on these photos?
