- I Found this 1948 Ford F5 School Bus Abandoned in the forest. I was able to get it running and driving, then took it on a epic journey. Now in this video we do a few repairs and then drive it to Junction City. We enter it in a classic car cruise and have a blast!

Good cruise, lots of different vehicles. Good people. Thanks for taking us with you. 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching! It was a Blast!
@@CountryBoyGasGarage I’ve been watching, back before you had your channel hijacked. Good enjoyable videos. Thx for sharing.👍👍👍
@tims72demon Man I appreciate that!
There is always things to do on these old vehicles. Quite a list of repairs. Will keep you busy and we'll have lots of content to watch. A good wash will make things look a lot better. And lots of help too. The cruse looks like a lot of fun. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.
You are right! Hey Thanks Brian!
Looks like a great show, excellent bus ,great assortment of car's, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Thank You Donald! I really appreciate that!
Get the bus under a roof and keep it dry and well ventilated.Tarps and covers will accelerate corrosion.Then relax and don’t worry about the leaks etc.I’ve got a ‘48 f1 with all the same issues as the bus,it’s garage kept and I get to it as I’m inclined to.Y block needs more frequent oil changes to keep the oil passages clean,sounds like your doing that right.Good job on the presentation and content.
Kinda what I was thinking. Metal carport isn't to expensive. Thanks!
@@CountryBoyGasGarageYup, this guy is right. Like I mentioned last year keep the oil clean. Y blocks are known for upper end problems. Especially with sludgy oil passages. Peace Buddy ✌️😎👍
I just sent Rick from CZcams’s Classic Truck Rescue down your way, Elmira), to get a ‘56 GMC short Fleetside bed made into a trailer. The good stuff, as you know is still out there, but really really hard to find.
(BTW, this was his worst rescue as he had to take the garbage that was in it….around 100 well used stinky rotten diapers). Film at 11….
You were sure blessed to find the 1948 Ford.
Looking forward to watching anything on it’s continued resurrection.
@tomrausch7014 awesome! Rick is great! Hey Thanks!
From one of your Florida fans, thanks for taking us along on the cruise! Jason, I'd like to see you start on some of the metal work that needs to be done where the rust has really eaten away at the body. I know it will take some time to get it all addressed. I think that it is important to check the progression of that "cancer." Anyway, love you and your beautiful family! God bless you all.
Thank You! God Bless!
Good ride. Loved the bus story from the start out in the woods . And a few of your cars along the way. Good family stories too!👍👍👍
Hey Thanks Tim!
Nice, great video Jason! Good to see the family on the whole project! 😁😉✌️
Thank You! It was such a good time for us all
I enjoy all of your videos on the buss watching from the start till now the buss has transformed from being abandoned to road worthy I cant wait to see more videos till then keep up the good work and God bless you
Hey Thanks! I really appreciate that! God Bless!
Awesome. We just brought home a 52 gmc short bus of our own! Glad we stumbled on yours.
That is awesome! I will definitely check it out. This one has taken me on quite the journey!

15:00 Shoulda ''tappy-tapped''!!!!! Oh well great stuff any way!!!!!!!
Totally! Hey Thanks!
Just found you!! I am hooked…Being a Girl with a vintage Truck!!!
Awesome! Hey, Thanks!
Cool 😎

Dang, wish i had seen the studs for the crossover! We couldve swapped those at my place easy peasy
Yeah I'll just both the manifolds in a couple weeks and get them studs swapped out.
@@CountryBoyGasGarage a torch would help, only heat the stud though. Cast iron doesnt like torches or welds
Hey man, I would soak that exhaust manifold in some rust remover for a few days before you pull out those studs so it doesn’t crack the manifold
I am juntak from north sumatera ,my country indonesia, saluuut for you mister
Hello to you in north Sumatra Indonesia!
Great job with the Bus Jason ! I think you should improve your watertight integrity ( Cowl repairs , window replacement, door repairs ) as time and money allows. Perhaps a portable shelter to keep it in out of the weather which would allow you to work on it . I have three of these shelters and they are a great " Poor Mans " garage. Thanks for your videos.
Exactly what I was thinking! Hey Thanks Philip!
Your right there Phil. I told Jason about the shelters last year. I have a shelter logic. I put roofers plastic over the dirt floor and covered that with plywood. It's nice and dry in there. It's warm and dry even in the winter. 👊😎👍
@@Awsom47Merc Hi Paul, I also have Shelter Logic units 2 - 12'x20' Quanset style and 1 - 12'x24' x 11' high for my 18' Starcraft boat with Gambrel style roof. All shed the snow well in winter and as long as you anchor them well will serve long tax free.
@@phillipbouchard4197Hey Phil. I've got the 24 x 12 Barn style. I keep my 55 Dodge Military Truck in it. You can see "Rambo" in the back of my member spot. I had to get a building permit (for a tent 🤣) and had to put in concrete footings. 👊😎👍
"Function for Junction" is the actual title of the cruise.
Yes. The "Function 4 Junction" is how they title it.
Woohoo! Srry I'm gettin to this late, been a whirlwind over here! Been looking forward to this video!
Awesome! Hey Thanks Oliver! It was a Blast! Hey maybe next year you and the Family could come for a ride!
Could you maybe shape a strip of aluminium and pop rivet it along the top of the cowel with silicone along the edges , im down here in new Zealand and have enjoyed this strory from the beginning
Hey Thanks Damian! I appreciate that! Cheers!
From Munich, hi body
Awesome! Hey Thanks!
I had a lot of fun on that Cruise I see you use some of my footage of your bus that’s cool i’m gonna be working on my bus to make more videos and try to find a way to trailer it to the next cruise just let me know where and when
Heck Yeah! Thanks Matt! It was cool to hang with fam! We had a blast!
I think the skeleton needs to go. One, it is church bus😂. But also, being one skeleton in an old bus just reminds me of Chris McCandless. 😢
If both ends of the crossover pipe do not mate to their respective manifold surfaces without forcing the mating surfaces to seat together with the force of the nuts... it will stress the ends of the manifolds and cause the manifolds to crack. Next time you work on it take an honest assessment of how well each end of the crossover pipe gits flush just holding by hand. If either end has a gapn cut the tube and rotate each end to mate without force to its manifold then reward the tube. Or else you will eventually have another broken manifold
not reward the tube.... re-weld the tube.
Totally! Hey Thanks Man! I really appreciate that.
I love this bus! Been watching since the beginning. Great job! Side note...What kind of penetrating fluid did you use?
Thank You Rose! I really appreciate that! I use PB Blaster penetrative
is that the original engine that came with that bus? I cant imagine a holley carb on a v8 motor in 1948?
No, it was swapped out for a 1957 Y-block
Seafoam does absolutely nothing for your engine. it's like a placebo. the only product that actually works. Is BERRYMAN. I've literally made cars pass deq with.💯👍🇺🇲
I've always used seefoam... Dang! I need to switch to Berryman!
I've used seafoam for years but your right it's for a pretty well kept fuel system. For a system that is varnished up you need something stronger such as berryman. Good call. 👊😎👍
No CC'S
Sorry, I just added them!
What model year size bus is it
1948 Ford F5 School Bus with a Superior built body
