MJP Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 A wild man bus, or hero, or whatever. bus hero.JPG You know these aren't really buses? They look like buses but actually their design and construction are closer to the origins of a horse drawn wooden carriage. Fibreglass and timber boards are shaped and formed to look like a bus. Seats are then fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
