Pictured are most of the restoration crew with the Futurliner. The
big-event is Eyes on Design at the General Motors Technical Center
in Warren this weekend of June 22, 2003.

The hoses come out, the scaffolding goes up and everyone goes to
work making it shine.
|
Washing the Futurliner is no small task. While the fellow with the
scrub brush washes, two men carefully move the scuffling so he can
get all of the roof area.
|
From the quiet country-side of Zeeland the Futurliner will
head back to the bustling metropolis of Detroit from which she
originally came.
|
The Futurliner heads down the lane to the road where she will be
loaded on a flatbed for the trip to Detroit.
|
The flatbed arrives but it's all wrong! The Futurliner won't fit!
After many unsuccessful calls to find another trailer it was finally
decided to tow it to Detroit. The rear axles were removed and very large
tow truck was commissioned.
|
Nice shot of the completed Futurliner -- at least on the outside.
The inside still needs a lot of work.

Picture of the Futurliner with a vintage Ford. The Futurliner will
mix with a number of vintage vehicles at the Eyes On Design show on
the Warren Campus of the General Motors Technical Center.
