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.
