Says it all:
hah, so I was lookin at my car title and decided to google maps the address of the person who sold to the person who sold the car to me (the original owner perhaps) and I found her tucked away i the corner.
I think this pic is about 3 years before I found it on Craigslist for sale. Little did I know that our destinies would cross.

End of last year I was just opening my garage and spied a funky ride driving by... I got Googled... Volksrod, Bus and my fat ass (not literally on the last part)
Pics are so clear... at least they blur the lic plates... and my face!
My Google experience was interactive, I saw them and I did wave at them as they drove away...
NOTE: check out the woman driving... busted, she is texting and driving _________________ Don't harsh my mellow...

The billboard attached to this Bus says "BUSTER'S BEACH HOUSE GRILL & LONGBOARD BAR". The vehicle is used to promote a restaurant in Long Beach, CA smack on the border of Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Image date at bottom of picture shows it was taken in June 2007.
