JACK M Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 I agree on the Brill. I had one of those years ago, Made it into a sweet motorhome. Not sure why I used a Cadillac engine. I was young then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzcarnerd Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) Found the same pic on a bus forum - http://forum.bustalk.info/viewtopic.php?t=4176&sid=e7d14363c9326bdaf2d5b4fbcc973c0c ACF Brill IC-41 This one lists the IC-41 as an intercity bus - logical enough for IC I guess - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._G._Brill_Company - I presume WLW's example was a retired one. Some info here - http://www.rvmechanic.com/current_category.181/Forum.20672/offset.5488/forum_thread_full.html?print_page=1 - the engine is a 779 cid gasoline six, four speed trans with the shift to reverse being done through first, 'horrible' fuel mileage so in the 1950s Caterpillar offered a diesel alternative. The dates would seem to be just post WW2. Edited March 26, 2017 by nzcarnerd (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACK M Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Mine was a 47. It came sans engine or tranny, but it had to be a pancake of some sort as there wasn't much room for it under the floor. I remember I built a doghouse under a kitchen counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
