[@baptisedbyfire]

I’m in the UK and I bought a 45 year old German fire truck with a rod knocking engine for scrap value from marketplace a few years ago, swapped a big Diesel engine into it and entered it into a rally from Budapest in Hungary to Freetown in Sierra Leone. I was asked about out it on Hungarian National tv where I explained that it was a drunken marketplace purchase and the only overlanding modification we made was to replace the fire pump in the back with a beer fridge. Anyway, we completed our 10750 mile journey in it, rescued a motorbiker 10 miles from the nearest road in the Sahara desert, drank a whole load of beer and woke up on the roof most mornings. We’re taking it to Mongolia next. Like your school bus, I highly recommend purchasing a spares or repair 1977 Mercedes fire truck for similar occasions 😂

[@peteleivo2247]

Hell yes dude, I'm from Finland and bought a 1969 mercedes L 406 D fire department van with an engine swap from our equivalent marketplace last year, and I'm fixing it up to be a party bus for next year.

[@madmex2k]

I am hoping you have started a trend for all Nascar events! Just imagine, a bunch of grandmas getting out of the house, trying to take the church bus to play bingo, but mistakenly getting picked up by Kevin and Mook on what looks to be a familiar church bus, and taking them instead to the Nascar track with the whole crew on the Save Our Beer Ministries bus. As any kind (now possibly drunk) grandma would do, they begin baking breadsticks and spaghetti for their newly found drunk friends. They knit sleeping bags, and curtains for the bus, crocheting drivers Cool Suits and Doilies and curtains for the inside of those race cars, etc. Hey, This isn't the JYD comment you were looking for, but the one you needed.

Perhaps since you have that other bus too, you can still sell the yellow machine and fixer-upper the other one for next year? Rattle can paintjob with some JYD and other channel decals etc and a few more party features to work on all year. Wondering...what engine swap would make sense 🤣

If I were you I would keep the school bus and I would design a bigger rooftop platform so you can have more room on top. The other thing I would do is get that color-changing strip lighting and put it all over the inside of the bus so at night you could turn it on and have it change colors. I would put some bunk beds inside of the bus and have a table on the platform so you can sit up top and have a table and your chairs so you can eat and watch the races.

[@911delorean]

That Chevy bus looks like a keeper. Judging by the sound it's a diesel. Checking wikipedia there were 5 options for engines. 3 of them were Chevy Bigblocks from 366ci to 496ci. The diesel options were either a Caterpillar 3116 or 3126. The 3126 is what Deboss Garage is putting in his F350. I would really like to see this bus be the Nascar bus. Over the years slowly improve it. Paint it, sound dampening, turn it into a RV as you want it. The 3126 is a sick engine.

[@JunkyardDigs]

This one was a 3116

[@911delorean]

@@JunkyardDigs still a sick engine. I think it's like 6.6L vs 7.2 either way hope it sticks around. It's got potential.

[@Raythan01]

@@911delorean The options for engines in the Topkicks and Kodiaks of that era were the tall deck 366 and 427s or in the 99 and newer trucks the vortec 454 and 8.1 toward the end of the bodystyle. The diesels offered were the cat 3116 mechanical up til 1997 or the cat 3126 electronic heui starting in 98. There is a cat 3116 heui, but it's rare. The 3116 is a 6.6l and the 3126 is a 7.2l. I've been researching the 3116 since I've been thinking about swapping it into a light duty gmt400 dually myself. They actually only weigh about 1200 lbs. Which is only like 150 lbs more than a 5.9 12 valve.

[@911delorean]

@@Raythan01 I'd still take the 12v. I feel the aftermarket support is much better and probably cheaper because the engine is much more abundant.

[@Raythan01]

@@911delorean Yeah, it's true the 12 valve cummins is the ideal engine, but a 3116 swap would be much more unique.

Have to admit, I was expecting something a little different. Back in the 90's I worked with a guy in Indiana who was a huge Darrell Waltrip fan, and actually took an old school bus and converted it into an RV. He practically rebodied most of the bus and as a finishing touched, placed Darrell's "Western Auto" livery and racing number all over it. He would take it to a few races each year. There's probably an article or two about it on the internet somewhere. His name was Doug Brown and I don't believe he kept it for many years, the chassis and motor were super old and it broke down a lot. Lol
