This is the most difficult retrieval I have ever seen, for a variety of reasons. I can't believe you were able to do it by yourself with the tools you had available to you.

I was lucky enough to pull a 23 window deluxe (same color) out of the woods up near Canada years ago. It had a small tree growing up through it and had become a home for the squirrels. It took two days to get it on a trailer. It had a ton of parts inside. One of the hardest things I’ve done, but super fun discovering everything! Good luck!

Take a COMEALONG WITH YOU! 4. GET THE BUS OFF THE GROUND. BUY NEW TIRES!! or get a 4WD vehicle. 5. GET A BUNCH OF LOGS FOR ROLLERS and then put down your planks. Sounds easy, but I KNOW IT WEREN'T EASY...Best of luck.

@OlddeadleadfootАй бұрын
You're welcome. I've rescued a lot of buses and beetles in my 57 years, and have sawzalled so many tires off the rims. The best way to cut them is to cut the side walls out around the bead, as close to the bead as possible without damaging the rim and blade. Don't try cutting across through the tread. Then, cut through the bead, or in your case, with all of the mud and water, just leave the bead flopping. I have found it much easier to move non-rollers in such conditions, without the petrified tires attached.
