Chassis is by Dodge I think. Body might be by Wayne. |

1962-64 Dodge S-500 chassis. Remember, this is a school bus. |

What is a school bus doing in the middle of nowhere where there are probably no schools |

Good question, I never really thought of that either. And how the heck is a car with a 6 cylinder gunna push a 2-ton bus???????????????????? It doesn't make sense. -- Last edit: 2008-03-26 03:40:11 |

Im under the assumption that they could have been on a field trip. And they called those slant 6s leaning towers of power, but I dont know if it could push a bus. |

They are on a trip. By looking at the weather you can guess it is summer, so they might be using their last school week to make some trips. |

It's on my DVD of the film. |
◊ 2009-01-23 17:24 |
Yes, it is on the DVD and it also was in the TV version which I saw 16 years ago. |

The IMDB has some details of the different versions in circulation: http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0067023/alternateversions |

Actually you do see buses on that road to pick up children that live in that canyon. Granted there were fewer children back in 1971 but the area were they shot the scenes is right near were they filmed the quarry scenes in The Flintstones movie. It looks like the middle of nowhere but is less than ten miles from Santa Clarita. It is also about 12 miles to the grade school in Acton. Back then it could have been a field trip to Soledad Sands Park which is now a Thousand Trails RV Park. |

Couldn't be a field trip - no teachers were on the bus. It is definitely a Wayne. |

S-400, (1963+) S-550 and S-600 were also available, the latter sharing wheelbases and pupil capacities with the S-550 → S-Series. |

Something I don't get is why the truck driver bothered to push the bus when his goal throughout the film was murder. |
◊ 2022-07-02 06:27 |
I think the driver did that as a way to provoke/antagonize our main character. Kind of like saying "You couldn't help them trying your hardest, but I could help with ease." |

Hello! Someone please can help me identify this thing? It's from Algeria, my friend (who took the photo) told me it's a Dodge but I want to know more of it, especially what bodywork is this? Is it a panel van or what? Informations please! Thank you all. ![]() -- Last edit: 2023-05-23 02:48:19 |
