In a nutshell, I had to gut the bus floor out and fabricate a rectangular tube floor frame to support the weight of the Cobra. The aluminum ramps stand on edge on either side of the car against the side walls. Since the pictures were taken, I have removed the original seats and replaced them with 4 captain's chairs from a Ford van. Very comfy! That way I can seat 4 with the car in it. After working out all the bugs with the original gas 460 engine in it for 2 years, I decided to go on with the Cummins 12valve and 5R110 trans swap last winter. Best thing yet!

This is freaking cool. Best use I have seen yet for an old bus.
