Moonbeam-ExpressA neat video on a do it yursef project
It's still fun to create rather than buy. I think he goofed on a few things with this converted schoolie, but well done overall and a good presentation of the finished project.

Danny ZNice. A while back there was a discussion on "forward control" and what it meant. This guy says it means the driver sits in front of the front wheels. Makes sense to me.

Moonbeam-ExpressDanny,
In general terms FC (Forward Control) can mean the same as COE (Cab Over Engine). But in the Blue Bird community it means Forward Engine. Perhaps this is due to them making both pushers and pullers.
Anyway, it does have different meanings to different crowds.
