I guess I was mistaken as we did get it from this museum. They offered flatbed, stake-bed, van and bus models. This two-ton bus is a classic Stoughton 1919 model. It shows the extensive use of wood framing and paneling. These Stoughton buses were powered by either Continental, or Midwest engines, depending upon which model and/or year. It would be a few more years before wood-framed and panel buses would cease to be built, but metal was gaining favor as the new mantra! This 14-passenger Stoughton bus is on show at the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in McMinnville, Oregon, Home of the famed Spruce Goose

hello, we recently got in the above bus. Can anyone tell me what this is running from the front of the motor to the intake? Thanks

Converting a Buick Super from 6 volt to 8 volt.
GasWorksGarage replied to GasWorksGarage's topic in Buick - Post War
Update all, I got a setup converter from amazon, ($13.00) (2.25 x 2.25" 1.25 deep) 5V to 12V setup 3 Amps 36 watts. Same issue. I spoke to a local auto electric shop they said not enough amp or watts so back to amazon and for $20.00 I got a 5V to 12 V 10 AMP 120 watts ( not much bigger in overall size) a little better problem is when rolling up the voltage drops from 12.25 to 4.78 ? For shits and giggles also battery was low and I wanted to start the car, I put my jump box on it. 12volt box, standard ) windows worked fine no voltage drop. WTH? (heck) why the voltage drop I wonder? Thanks for all your input and patience with me. are far as making them hydraulic again, I was looking at over $1,000 window. EVERYTHING inside the door has been removed and changed from OEM> -

Converting a Buick Super from 6 volt to 8 volt.
GasWorksGarage replied to GasWorksGarage's topic in Buick - Post War
its a 48 Super. I had a couple guys tell me that 8 volt system when running puts out around 9.5 to 10 volts and that this would make a big difference and I wouldn't have to change anything else. -
Converting a Buick Super from 6 volt to 8 volt.
GasWorksGarage replied to GasWorksGarage's topic in Buick - Post War
Hello, my problem is that somewhere down the line someone removed the hydro electric widows and replaced with 12 volt power window motors. they roll down slow and you have to help them roll up. I believe that 6 volts is just not enough power for the 12 volt motors. -
hello, what all is involved in changing the electrical system from 6 to 8 volt? Changing the generator and regulator? thanks in advnce

GasWorksGarage replied to Hans1965's topic in Buick - Post War
I do, I don't think ours came with factory electric windows. Someone before me added them to the front windows. They are not hydro. they have just the standard power window motor. I just cant get the old motor out or the regulator. Any thoughts? -

Ok I have a brake question. I am trying to remove the rear drum shoes on the axle ( parking brake) I cant seem to get the maim pin out. Do I have to remove the through bolt that holds the clamp completely? Thanks in advance. ( see pic ) -
can I check the oil? add? if so what type? Thanks

Question, I don't see any leaks or dampness on them but the rear bounce's like crazy. I unhooked the drivers side and its stiff hard to move like its working correctly. am I overlooking something?
