Minneapolis Street Sightings: International Loadstar 1600







Whoa. It's not very often I spot an old bus, much less one of this vintage. While it looks sweet from afar, up close tells a very different story. The green paint, while a nice patina, is not the original color; it appears it was yellow as were all other school buses were at the time, and still are. I've never seen the inside of this thing, but I am curious as to what it holds. It's been sitting in this spot for about a year now, and I've never seen it move. I'm hoping it doesn't end up sitting in its current parking space and rotting. As I am always on the hunt for unusual vehicles, this has been my best find in terms of bizarre, but I dig it. Very much so.
