8v92TA bluebird Wanderlodge detroit Diesel engine rebuild

We didn’t get it all the way finished but we got a ton of work done in the week we were here working. We will come back in March and finish the job. It’s a few days before Christmas and we need to get home to Indiana for the holidays.

Elvis has left the building

Well we know what the flange that almost hit Tyler in the head was for the fan hub. It's really taking shape from where it was on Monday when I was there helping put the liners in. There is a lot of accessory stuff on the Wonderlodge that you don't see on most coaches. That was the Silversides I saw when I was coming up there on Monday. Cool looking with good stance on the springs. Great job everyone and safe travels home Scott and

It was a great time today and we are well over the hump with this project! All of the cooling hose mysteries were solved by pics that were taken during disassembly and some great diagrams that were shared on the Busgreasemonkey.com forum. We had a bunch of help from some wonderful guest Bus Grease monkeys all week and I can’t thank them enough! I can’t wait for Scott to return so we can hear this baby run... Won’t the neighbors be shocked to see this Wanderlodge move again! 😆

Elvis lives ! Now we know why Mark is such a Cadillac man . Great.

[flirman]

Your labor i think is more than adequate considering your rebuilding a bus engine in the grass and it has all those cut pipes. outstanding job!

[audikris]

Oh wow, the Elvis bit made my day!!!!

[buddylee]

Sign in front of bus: "Drinking intoxicants is strictly prohibited"
Tyler, without hesitation: "That sh**'s getting pulled out!"

You guys are crackin' me up!

I always preferred working in the cold than the hot. I can always put on more clothes, but I can only take off so many before I get arrested again.

Merry Christmas to Scott, Tyler and Kelly and to all you Bus owning folks...Have a safe trip home and keep the video's coming...

[michaelhrpufnstuf]

Thank you Scott for all the uploads. It can't be easy opening your life to everyone. I have really enjoyed all your uploads. I hope you and your wife have a decent break from it all. You are inspiring to an ex mechanic like me. I turned to teaching instead. I miss my tools i gave away years ago though.

[mikemullay]

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Scott.

That Silversides you saw was really rough. That could keep Tyler busy and off YouTube for a whole year. It would be a real potential rescue series, however. Could be really interesting video, too.

[martyyt]

That's GREAT that Tyler is going to buy it.

[kevinhamling]

G'day Kevin from Australia.
It must be a blast having Elvis on the job. ✌ Peace man

[harrowtiger]

Nice Christmas present for Tyler. Will be watching the rebuild. Ensure the S cams are in the right way. Lol...

[Lee-qpgf]

Man, that was a lot of work done in a short time. Ya got to love Mark and he will really enjoy that old Wonderlodge.
Good series,
Lee

the driver area of Tyler's new bus looks awesome. To me that is on of the key features of a silversides. The way the steering column comes up, love it. with the gutted interior it is probably a rocketship. I can see it. super singles, big turbo, jakes, big aircleaner, big exhaust, and an executive coach kind of interior, rear lounge, step down shower, big beer fridge, microwave, no kitchen. proper man bathroom with a proper urinal.big screen, to watch youtube on ;) Just have to think about the proper color for it. I think Tyler can handle a real color?
