It’s only fitting to give an update on today 9/20/10, which happens to be my bus’ 48th birthday.

To celebrate, I worked a bit on the headlight buckets.  This is the driver side bucket, which has some rust in a few areas due to the elements.  The rubber seals were very brittle and may have never been changed.  Now 48 years later it’ll get it’s “eyes” cleaned up and converted back to 6v sealed beams.  I’ll be painting tomorrow after work.

Updates can be followed on my photo stream on flickr.
