Hey guys, I am making my way over from the type 3 side to ask you guys a question. My dad had built a drag bus named "Honey I Shrunk The Bus" over twenty years ago for a good friend of his Danny Corbo. We've kept in contact with Danny since he parked it and has offered to let us have the bus. I'm starting to seriously contemplate doing so but would be in need of a roof to chop up. The one on it has gotten pretty beat sitting uncovered for fifteen years. I'm in eastern pa and was just wondering if there are any decent enough busses left to do what I need to do. Pictures are as it sits now. Thanks guys

Re: Drag Bus Restoration

Very cool Greg. It would be great to get fgrosso5 over here on UAC and show us his progress on the resto.

Another east coast car coming out of the wood work. That roof has A LOT of mud in it.

Couple years since this post, any update anywhere on if he took it on and if it is being restored?
