I would have paid less. Cleaned it up, titled it, and sold it for more.

As long as he thinks that's a double door, he'll no doubt come across just as smart to potential buyers on other stuff. No hurry, no worry on an 8x payout.

Ok guys, what's up, after 786 pages of this thread, are there no more buses to be found?

This thread needs an update! I live vicariously through you and your finds.

I'm a fiend having withdrawals here!

Alright this thread has been dormant long enough. One of my repeat customers from ECC was good enough to pass this find onto me.
My wife and I packed up and left last Thursday for a 4100 mile round trip in 6 days. Pretty stoked to add a dblcab to the family
