i dont think my bus ever made it on here. not very good pictures and with the extensive body damage, there wasnt much left of the writing. i found it interesting for being a groom mobile in those days.
when i started work on my 53 standard, this is what i came across while working down to bare metal.
the bus is from NC according to the logos. i have never found any more info on the bus and its past.

This is the ultimate in understated advertising. I love it.
