Vintage Kilgore “Safety Bus” Mustard Cast Iron B760 School Bus *SOLD*

Vintage Kilgore “Safety Bus” Mustard Cast Iron B760 School Bus

This mustard colored cast iron “Safety Bus” school bus manufactured by Kilgore Manufacturing Company originated in Westerville, Ohio. This is a two-piece cast iron construction where the halves are held together with a riveted steel rod in the center. The wheels and axles appear to be nickel plated cast iron. One front wheel is bent at the axle and does not turn easily.  Embossed on the inside passenger side is “B 760” and inside the driver side “KILGORE”. Kilgore is an extremely sought after company and as such these pieces can be very hard to find.

Our example of this bus is in good all original condition with no restorations, repairs, breaks or touch ups. This piece shows the usual patina, chips, scuffs, scratches, and wear that are to be expected from age and play. It is approximately 8” x 2″ x 1 ¾”. This would be a great addition to any cast iron collection. We invite you to view the photos to further determine quality and condition.
