Love them fishbowls

I appreciate the information and great insights on the process. It is all overwhelming but worth it in the end. It sounds like Morton is standard driven which explains why their cost may be higher. Most don’t do this repeatedly, so you want it done right the first time.

Does Morton builds the metal as well.We are planning 10000 sqft one.in the market.contacted local.have not received a response yet

Im designing a replica of this bus from scratch and couldn't for the life of me find the door width. Thanks!

Short sleeve t-shirt and shorts........ Must not be of the itchy glassy kind of insulation.... BTW, I also wear a tee-shit and shorts every day here in Florida........... Could SPRAY FOAM insulation be any cheaper? I'm guessing approx. $6,000 for foam. Glad I found this before I move forward

Was in Akron on business for the past week. Couldn’t get a tour because I didn’t have a group. Real bummer, Couldn’t even just look through a window.

This bus looks like a combination of a flexible and fishbowl bus

This bus looks like the framework of a flexible bus and the side windows, the back window looks like a fishbowl bus window as well as the top roof back heat vent looks like a fishbowls heat unit, and its EXUAST pipe is not under the bus like a fishbowl bus, its on the back side just like a flexible bus

Thanks for the info - much appreciated.

The new looks are my all time favorite city bus.

Very interesting & funny.

Cool 👍

Very well done! Such a hilarious parody. 😂😂😂 LOL

I will buy it as I have a 1967. 2000 hours of education may make my offer better than others.

I loved the old GM buses from the 50's and 60's, with that screaming Detroit. There's still nothing like it. 😊

I don’t know why I didn’t look that scene up until watching an old family guy episode again (that does a spoof of the graduate as well but on a smaller scale). This is fantastic and thank you for posting this!

Very helpful...very, very helpful. Thank you for taking the time and energy to share, knowing you may never know just how helpful it would be to someone else. Salute.

Thanks. I'm investing in a friend's custom engine build (& general mechanics) business. He really should have a ~50'x60'x16' space.

Thank you for sharing. Nice building and wonderful presentation.

Thank you so much for this wealth of information. Your video was very informative. Please keep posting.

I live in Missouri and since it's very humid here I've been told that the metal buildings sweat. I don't think it would be a great idea to use this kind of insulation for me. Ive been told there is some kind of underlayment that needs to be applied to prevent rotting of the wood frame. Any professionals have any recommendations ?? I don't want to spend time and money and do it wrong and later down the road face the consequences..thanks

Just had an estimate for a 40x40 Morton building in March of 2024. Building, concrete, and doors = $124k . Maybe in my next life…

Are you Blackmagiccrafts dad?

Thank you you are a big help

I have a documented 1968 GM TDH converted to an RV. It is subjective,

I own a GMC TDH 1956 transit bus . I’m trying to remove the front doors off because they have considerable rust at the bottom of the doors and I have a fabricator and welder who can remove the rust and repair the doors. Can you give me any guidance on what I would to remove the doors for repair.

The Nickel Plate Road pulled a switch-a-roo with the City of Ft. Wayne, IN in the early 1960s, when they asked for the steam locomotive that had been the first to lead a train across the new elevated track through town about 10 years earlier, for display in a city park. That locomotive, Berkshire type #767, was subsequently involved in a wreck after the ceremony, and while it was repaired and returned to service, it was never the same, had ongoing problems, and when the railroad Dieselized in 1958 was one of the first to be scrapped. Not wanting to totally disappoint the town fathers, they substituted locomotive #765, renumbered it for #767 and gave it to the city. Well, when a group was formed about 10 years after that to refurbish the locomotive for possible excursion operation, they realized the builder's number was for 765, not 767. This turned out to be very fortunate for the group, because #765 was probably the most reliable and best running locomotive on the division, a crew favorite, and had received a major shopping not too long before retirement. So, they got a well-taken care of and reliable locomotive that ran for nearly 20 years before needing a major overhaul, and it still runs to this day, a fan favorite.

Had it figured it out for you but late to the game.

I have one. If it come up for sale, let me know. Thanks.

Appreciate your video...plan on building in Summit County, OH in the next year or two.

there used to be a whole yard full of these L.A. city busses just rotting away outside of Los Angeles around Y2K. Probably 25 or more. Probably all gone now. Havent been back there since because CA is a nightmare

I am in Poland Ohio And planning for my second building

I just got done watching The Graduate for the first time. And with Wayne's World 2 being one of my all time favorite movies growing up. The final scene had me laughing just from remembering Wayne's World 2. 😂. First thing I had to do was look online for a side by side comparison. Thank you for doing this .

In Cuba we had buses exactly like this one with a small window before and after the back door. They arrived in Cuba at the end of the 1950's and were already in use in the USA. We also had a small version! They had automatic transmission and air suspension and seemed like they were floating above the streets! Congratulations to the engineers and designers of those Old Look GMs! ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👋👋👋👋👋👋 It would be interesting to see if there are promotional videos of those buses with their creators! !!!Applause! 👋👋👋👋👋

Hi I'm a former Transit Driver from Bpt Conn. You have to of the Best Busses GMC has ever built. The old Look and the New Look. Good Luck on your progress ... Just a little tip. When driving the two busses when turning the wheels do the push and pull method work's much better!🎉

Applauses! ❤️❤️❤️❤️👋👋👋👋👋👋

Wow! We had this same type of GM Old look and the small version in Cuba! They arrived in Cuba in the 1950's and were already in use! Excellent air suspension, they were automatic and super comfortable! They have the same number of windows with one small window before and after the rear door! Applause for GM designers!!! I remember one in particular with the number 1442 that went from Havana to Guanabo! ❤❤❤❤❤👋👋👋👋👋👋👋

The most iconic bus of all time

Great video!

Thank you for this great video. You explained it very clearly!

what are you going to do with the buses ?

Bring the flat screen back!

I was a CBS driver from 72 to 75. Loved every minute of it.

What people don't know is that metal sweats on to the wood then the wood rots .

I can't thank you enough for taking the time to go through the entire process. It helps tremendously!

Heartwarming to know it was saved from the scrap heap and risen all the way to museum quality ✌️👍

Thanks for the bus tour of a nice restoration! Have always liked the unique back of those.

Those speed buses were mine. I sold them 8 Buses for that movie. I made a lot of money from that. Also 5 came from San Diego and 1 from Dallas. 2 more were ex Los Angeles buses. 3 were actually 4519’s which were used for the jump schemes

Bueno 👍 guagua
