    I'm sure everyone here knows and loves the original Futureliner busses GM built in 1939 for the first Futurama , they sat mostly unloved in Studio City , So. Cal. for many years , I'd go by during my lunch break and dream of owning one .

    Found this link to a compagny i bought the cleaning powder from instead of using lemon-accid cleaning my block and cyl. head. And its really an amazing powder mixed in 5 liter water and 1 kg of powder.Remember to protect your eyes and face and hands very well when using it (Stripall). i think it is some alcalic stuff ? Stripall is kind against rubber and plastics but not aluminum.

    I saw one on display at Hershey and it was beautiful. They had a stairway up to the single drivers seat. They were charging admission to go up there - wish I had, but all I got was a Tee shirt. I like big white walls for some reason.

    That's cuz www are cool! You know, if you're going cheap you can make your own by carefully grinding off the black from the narrow whites to the rim. Messy job, but the results are worth it!:eek:
