This 1927 Blue Bird is the oldest surviving school bus in America! Albert Luce, Sr., built his first bus in 1925 by mounting a purchased wood body to a Ford truck frame. However, the body could not withstand the Georgia roads. Luce then applied a steel framework under the wood body. His success led him to make school buses full time.

About us
Kansas Truck Equipment is a dealer and service point for buses and heavy truck equipment. We are fortunate to be the sole dealer for Blue Bird School Buses in the state of Kansas, and are a leading provider of transportation solutions. We also specialize in work truck solutions. Kansas Truck Equipment is a truck equipment upfitter, certified as a final stage manufacturer, and we have earned the distinction as an MVP member of the National Truck Equipment Association, the only truck equipment dealer in the state to hold this designation. The trucks we design meet customers' job requirements, not our requirements to make a cookie cutter sale. Kansas Truck Equipment Co. staffs two shops for installations and service repairs with factory trained service technicians who perform installation and repair service on all the equipment we sell. A substantial parts inventory allows us to ship daily all over the state, often the same day the order is received, in order to keep our customers up and running.
