Need to find

The only thing close to a 1/35 school bus I can think of is the old Airmodel conversion for turn an Opel Blitz into a bus.  This would, however be a late-30's style bus.

Unfortunately I need a modern bus.

Some of the Japanese companies do buses in 1/32. Have a look here and see if anything appeals.

The closest you will find are the Arii Bonnet Buses in 1/32.  The issue with them is they are Japanese and have the entry door on the left side, as opposed to a US school bus which has one on the rt side.  You could probably cut the door section out and relocate it to the rt side though.  I have thought about doing the same.

Another option is to scratch/convert one using the above-mentioned Opel Blitz kit.  There is an article in the May 1990 FSM where Lewis Pruneau did it to show a Cambodian bus covered and filled with riders called, "Standing Room Only".  It is on the front of the mag.

Good luck.

Might be worth a shot.
