Part 2 of this project. The air system leaks and issues were crazy that we had to overcome. It’s a pleasure to drive now. Just a few more kinks to work out before it leaves.

I have had to make gaskets many times and you were fortunate that gasket was a simple wide surface instead of a complex multi cornered multi bolt hole thin border gasket for the top plate and center section on an old cars carburetor (didn’t have time to wait for a carb kit as it was registered to be in a local car show the next day and the kit I was sent was the wrong one). It took a while but I did get it done and it worked perfectly. Next was having to make a new cup for its accelerator pump which took 2 attempts before I got it right. It seems there aren’t many of us left who can still make our own gaskets and it’s up to us to teach others how to do it. Congrats and giving you my thanks to you on having the venue for teaching such skills before they are lost.

Scott, Thank you for the great videos of your work on the various busses. I expect that it has a lot to do with your previous life in photography and Kelly’s steady hand. By the way, I love to hear Kelly’s voice-over as she has a wonderful melodious voice. On another note, do you have any problems getting quality parts? That has become a very serious problem with new automobile parts necessitating the need to source new-old parts. Thanks again to you and Kelly and your son. Super job!

17:54 The owner of the bus who is driving should have 2 hands on the wheel and Scott had to remind him of the speed limit.The compressor repair took ages as the head was leaking and the brass fitting had been cross threaded but now it is properly sorted.The jake brakes can be repaired later this year..I think Scott was a bit uncomfortable being near this customer.
