i got a 39 international w/ a wayne body ,i used a chevy p-30 chassis, was a flat frame truck with a van body on it . some people use a say 74 about any motor home,tool truck,food truck can be used ? just try to match up the wheel base lengths to match your school bus,also watch that the front suspension is not too wide ! mine was the correct wheelbase and suspension width, but looks like the motor will need to be moved rearward!,the 2 front body mounts lined up w/ "waynes factory mounts ,the rears will need to be fabricated !if you watch the local parts peddlers, neighborhood newspapers a complete truck will sometimes pop up cheap ?
