    Tippey764: 1992 International 3800 DTA360

    Engine:
    International DTA360 5.9 liter diesel
    Allision AT545 4 speed automatic transmission without lockup torque converter :td:

    Suspension:
    hahahah thats funny, the fuck is i know...

    Brakes:
    4 wheel drum air brakes

    Interior:
    Lovely interior with dirty blue vinyl seats

    Exterior:
    Gross off white with advertisement for some dudes company that has to go
    22.5 inch 10 lug wheels


    Future plans:
    Convert to RV
    Repaint
    Fix issues
    new tires
    JDM rear tow hook














    On the drive home we noticed the passenger mirror was not really attached at the bottom

    As we drove we noticed it swinging quite a bit, we were concerned it might fall off

    This is literally all that was holding it to the bus






    Yeah so this is my big ass fucking school bus, our goal is to convert this into an RV, deck it out in MLP shit and take it to conventions. Its going to get some hella attention when its ready

    Its owned by me and 2 friends, we split it 3 days. The bus was $1400 and we drove it home.

        Thats one ugly bus. Good luck with the conversion, I've seen some nice ones. Plus it makes a decent tow rig if you need to shuttle cars around.

              I don't even know where to begin with lowering it, regardless it sounds like a bad idea lol

              Party bus is A go though.

              Its ugly now because it needs a serious paint job lol

              A decent towing rig? YEAH LOL

              This thing is so underpowered its not even funny. Alright it is. Really though it needs more power. I need to learn more about how it works first though. Its a fully mechanical diesel.

              That thing isn't even a bus anymore lol

              This bus can't even spin tires in the gravel



              I forgot to mention under mods that it has a JDM roof rack.

                i would try adjusting the waste gate on the turbo. you might see some big power gains.

                  I was reading about adjusting the fuel rate at the pump and adding a dt466 turbo.

                      No, nothing is better about this thing LOL

                      its so fucking slow

                      It tops at around 60mph on the highway, it takes a mile to get from 50 to 60.

                      I also want to swap out the rear end gear ratio to something longer.

                          i seriously doubt that

                          A few bolt ons? LOL

                          It weighs a shit ton and its hooked to the shittest transmission ever.

                              The 5.9 liter is also the smallest engine available for this chassis lol

                              The other engines were the T444e ( aka the ford powerstroke 7.3 liter, its an international engine ford just rebranded it ) and the DT466 7.6 liter.

                              You should see the exhaust on this thing, its like 3-4 inches in diameter and long as fuck.
