Joe showed me pictures of the Colorado Deluxe above a couple years ago at the Milwaukee Bug In. It is definately the same bus. He shipped it from Pueblo to Grand Junction for the restoration. I haven't seen it since. |

I believe that was Joes bus, the one done at KCW getting the interior done at lennys, more then likely the same one as in the ad. _________________ Stocking distributor of "The Funky Green Panels"

There were some pics on the KCW website a while back - pics of it just painted, ready for reassembly.
Can't find them now. Anyone save a couple? _________________ -StockRocks- |
