Dan lived in the bus for a few years and all systems operated as they were intended; the bus was driven to our facility with no concerns, although the transmission failed just after arrival; recent work to include rebuild of the Holley four barrel carburetor, and the starter appears to have a new solenoid; air systems operate as they should.
