Okay, even though the Japanese buses are pretty darn good, I just do not think it will be possible to convert them from left side drive to right side drive, meaning the buses in Iraq drive on the right side of the road and therefore have everything set up accordingly, but the Japanese buses which are depicted drive on the left side of the road. I would have to change more than the driver location; I would have to change everything on the left side to the right and vice versa, like the two doorways and therefore the seating, and glass set-up, blah blah blah.

Does anybody do buses that are the correct set up for this? Maybe US buses, or French buses...?

Robert,
Tamiya has a diecast city commuter bus that I have thought about getting and doing something with. Here it is:


Its available at Great Models:
Tamiya Buss

I have never seen it in person, so I don't know how accurate it is. If you get it, let me know how it is. I may get one as well.
