This is for Tyler. Use 1/2 steel. Cut in a U Match the bolt pattern on the buss wheels so it can be bolted to the hub. Now add two heavy low deck axles and the 16 heavy equipment trailer wheels. You will need one in front and one in rear. Like a shop wheel dolly. Make 2 of them. One left the other right. They will need to fit underneath or to the outside. I thought of a rale under the tire but possibly no room... This will allow it io be moved under tow or maneuver in tight quarters. This will need refinement.. A second set can have a trailer tung and steering. Cool vid.

Omg thank you so much for posting this. I love these old MCI motor coaches. The ones today are awesome too but any old one like this one rocks. I also noticed the two you pass as you were exiting I hope you do videos on those too. Brings back childhood memories riding in these going to events like amusement parks city theater shows etc. I had a toy Greyhound Bus in this motor. Do you use these buses for anything or just collect and use them for shows ?
