alive?

Today i worked on the bus... got the wheels back on, the breaks, etc... I thought I was ready for a test drive.... pulled out the drive way... made it about 100 yards...

yep, the ol' dog crapped out; 2 hours later, thanks to the idiot Manuel, I was able to take a cruise through the park. Apparently the wire that goes from the ignition to the coil is/ was broken. I was able to get it running by taking a wire and running it from the battery to the coil... a cool trick!

Jonny Pantz came over and we went for another drive... Honestly it was a bit scary. There were shakes, grinds, bumps, shimmys, jerks.... everything seemed to be "almost" working but not quite. Upon consultation it was decided that the bus needs the following:

-Either switch the tires or raise it up a notch. I think I will switch the tires...
-It neeeeeeds an alignment...
-The breaks need some work...there has got to be some air in the lines ....
-The electrical problem needs to be addressed...

I believe that's the major stuff, surly there are other things that will need to be addressed... one thing at a time.

The rain gutter on the bus sits at 60 inches... right at my chin. It looks good and kind of mean. Honestly a little scary to drive....
