I rebuilt the front of the bus because i discovered rust and it had a fender bender at one time. Anyway, i don't like the original bumper on this MCI8 and was looking for some ideas. I thought about building some sort of "basket bumper," to put more stuff up front. Anybody done anything like that? Already made the opening to drop down like a bin lol. | ||

I think Someone said Jack Conrade had a drawer type he made for his MC8 with the bumper attached.  Chromie | ||

Bill If you are going in that direction,also consider installing provisions for a front mounted supplemental radiator. We all have heard the stories of running hot on grades. I have seen it done here in Edmonton by an old retired Detroit guy on a MC8. He had it blended in very inconspicuously. (i.e. not obvious) Joe. | ||
