Your video is a precious gift. I loved the bus you restored. The wonderful video showing so many happy, skilled friends sharing their love and passion. The music was superb. Video wonderfully edited. You have inspired me to take on some bigger car restoration projects with some friends. Warm regards, Blaine Halley, Santa Cruz, CA 😎

Big shout out to the entire team who worked diligently to save this historical Ford bus!!! Thank you all. It is beautiful and I would enjoy seeing it in person and getting a ride too.

[@VintageJunker]

That is an amazign find. So glad you saved it. I have one too. It's a 1935 Flxible Bus. The Airways model. I'm 14 years in but still making progress. Mine is a 16 passenger

[@waltersnowdon1243]

What a fantastic and worthwhile restoration. How I envy you!

[@slothzombi307]

You just never see buses that old.. Sweet.

[@markfortin421]

I applaude these gentlemen for undertaking a project of this magnitude and succeeding so beautifully. This is truly a labor of love, if you added up the hours involved by everyone, theres no way this is rewarding except in the final product. Bravo 🎉 on a job well done!!

[@thesmokydig]

that is one cool old truck/bus TY for sharing!!!

[@msmaron]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@davesrvchannel4717]

There’s a junkyard in Carlisle Alabama outside of Boaz, they have/had a school bus. Place of business Ingram’s. Last time I was there and saw school bus they had, that’s only one I’ve ever seen. Hats off to the crew. That woodworking is amazing along with everything else

[@msmaron]

[@ЛЬВИНИ]

Good video, like

[@msmaron]

Big thanks

[@markduncan6690]

Some Crazy Money will be spent here!💵💵💵💵💵💵!

[@SoCal_Jerry]

Did I miss something? Where is the overview of the finished Bus? Driving on the road would have been kool! Otherwise wonderful video of the amazing restoration of a piece of Americana.

[@msmaron]

Yea you missed part 2 of the finished project which is right on KZbin 😮

[@ДмитрийПетров-б9ч]

Что же, нет фотографии полностью готовой работы? Времени не хватило?

[@msmaron]

Watch part 2 and you can see that

[@ДмитрийПетров-б9ч]

@msmaron а-а-а-а?!

[@maxfastest]

Was this bus a public transit bus , or a school bus ?

[@alcyon1]

Did it ever get finished ?

[@msmaron]

See part 2 for the finished video

[@Jacques-jf1zv]

Carbody by Ford ?

[@tomlord5398]

I'm so happy to see you had a sign painter letter it! Instead of vinyl stickers. 🤮

[@perov_77_26]

Дуже дивно, нiколи не бачив автобусiв на базi FORD "A". Хотiлося б мати таку модель 1:43. 😊 [It is very strange, I have never seen buses based on FORD "A". I would like to have such a 1:43 model 😊]

[@evgenyzamansky1155]

Я так и не увидел конечный результат, но зато увидел много позирующих людей....

[@msmaron]

Watch part 2 it’s all there.

[@davidhughes211]

If you are involved in a project like this as I am, you appreciate any footage, so good on you and your team for all the long hours of work required and expense.

[@davidrobinson6353]

What’s the music 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍👍

[@msmaron]

Matt Simons, says in the credits at the end

Moderator needed

[@msmaron]

For what the progress????

[@jimwilloughby]

While it was good to see the bus when done, this video seems to be more about who worked on the bus. It would have been better to see the progress of restoration in chronological order ,without the crew getting in the way .

[@msmaron]

The crew is the reason the bus is done 1000%. That is the model a community

[@jessphuqette1716]

If you don't like it make your own video

[@wallacegrommet3479]

@@jessphuqette1716I guess free speech really is dead in the U.S.

[@wallacegrommet3479]

Agreed

[@wallacegrommet3479]

Title was misleading for sure

[@coloradomountainman8659]

No disrespect, but that annoying "music" truly ruined the video. Just sayin'.

[@msmaron]

None taken and your opinion is greatly appreciated,, the song is significant as the bus is talking...Appreciate your comment greatly

[@cowfrank]

​@@msmaron I thought the music was very soothing.

[@markduncan6690]

No Music Bye!

[@msmaron]

The music is non stop....from beginning to end!!!

[@ilikequiet6474]

Many posers. Guess we have to wait for the next video to see the bus finished. Eh?

[@msmaron]

It's coming soon, and those posers are all the volunteers that gave their time to make this happen.

[@OldSkoolF]

Please repost without the annoying music.

[@modestouriegas6036]

Song sucks 😬

[@msmaron]

then you dont get it.....It's actually perfect. Thanks for your comment

[@oldcult]

Very boring video 👎

[@msmaron]

Sorry you didn’t enjoy it. Have you ever restored a model Sanford over 6 years??? At least 67k have enjoyed it.

[@cowfrank]

Nothing nice to say? Karen

[@jcopp2031]

Wonderful project. Wonderful execution. I'm just a little disappointed in not seeing photos of the completed project.

[@msmaron]

there is a complete video part 2 of the completed bus. You cant miss it

[@jcopp2031]

@@msmaron Thanks for the info. I must have missed it on the first go-round. Now I know and I'll go watch it. Cheers.

[@JamesWest-iu4jx]

A dash with three wires .... of course there was probably someone scratching their head then ,, saying I can remember when dashes only had one wire.

[@cowfrank]

That was funny cheers!
