This is second part of the two part video of the complete restoration of this beautiful 1931 model bus that I've watched tonight (11-6-2024). It looks great! Question: The mentioning in this video says it was put in (?) the Gilmore Auto Museum. I'm presuming, without looking up where and who the museum is named after. My guess, since I'm an long time Indianapolis Champ Car racing fan that it's named after , Jim Gilmore...longtime Indy car fan/racing team owner of a few famous Indy Car drivers of long past: Art Pollard [1927 - 1973] of Portland, Oregon; Gordon Johncock of [1937 - ] of Hastings, Michigan; and the great A.J. Foyt [1935 - ] of Houston, Texas. Update...I was right! Unfortunately, Jim died late December of 2000 at age 74...car accident. This museum must be an interesting place!

The bus is at the Gilmore Car museum campus in Hickory Corners Mi., and will remain there.

You better have a good prayer life with those mechanical brakes to stop quick took a miracle.

[@theeastman9136]

With model AA speeds, mechanical brakes are adequate for sane drivers.
