I plan to tow the newly acquired '64 Sunroof Deluxe Bus home this evening and start the process of getting it back on the road. It has been sitting (inside a barn) for 13 years. I will drop the motor and pull the tank (to have it cleaned), will replace the fuel pump and probably rebuild the carb. Dave Easterwood suggested that I go ahead and rebuild the motor (the Bus has 61K miles). I would like to get this Bus going ASAP, but if a rebuild is required, then it will be done (but probably not by me). I also plan to change all fluids and refresh all lubricants. Any other ideas or requirements?
