Hi, thanks for the responses.
The louvre grill isn't really damaged and think I can get the door to
work ok, hopefully.
I've got the radiator unbolted and the main hose clamp loosened but
the hose isn't wanting to come off easily. Got too hot, so will get
back to it in the cool am. Do I just need more muscle, twist & groan,
a knife or what?
Don't think we have a local bluebird bus dealer around here. I did
talk with the fellow who runs the local school district bus shop once
but he just jobs any repairs (engine etc) to a local truck shop. Body
work I don't know.
of course hoping for a quick fix as were hoping to use to coach this
upcoming weekend for a jaunt.
Haven't tried the gen set slide, afraid if it was damaged I'll never
get the gen. pushed back in....

thanks for your help
