When you clean the bus next time don’t have your doggie sitting on the seats. Also mop your way off the bus from front of the bus to the rear and make sure the dog sits and stays at the rear of the bus. No foot or Paw prints on the wet floor. Lol. I love your videos and have learned and enjoy watching them every time they pop up on UTUBE. My name is Stanley. I lived in New York City for 50 years and grew up there. I moved to South Carolina 10 years ago. NYC Is a total mess! VOTE TRUMP.

When she finally kicked into life once more and started moving... almost brought a tear to the eye. And I'm a youngun! I've only ever seen buses like these in old pictures, or ones lovingly restored like this old girl will finally, deservingly, be. Certainly never ridden one or seen one in action in person. I have no nostalgia here... it's just wonderful to see, as an enthusiast of motor vehicles.❤ Excellent work.

In order to keep a KZfaq channel monetised you have to upload a video or make a community post occasionally, so I’m guessing that’s a primary reason…

If possible can you do a video of an oil change on a Bristol RE and Bristol VR seeing you take out and replace the oil filters and where to drain the oil out and adding fresh oil, as there are few if none of books like Haynes manuals showing you. Also radiator fluid being drained and replaced and removing old fuel and adding new fuel filters.
