Howdy gang,

I've spend a lot of time around here, in the last months, but never had a good reason to post.

Well, now I have the perfect reason: got myself, finally Dancing, some buses, for a good price, and one of them in a pretty good condition.

The problem is that this good one happens to be an ambulance, and I used to find the idea of driving around in an ambulance quite morbid. Never mind this aspect, BaronVonKronken helped me get rid of this repulsion (thanks BVK Very Happy ); here's my issue: since ambulances are the rarest type of buses, will it be wrong to turn it into a camper, will you guys hate me for this?

This is the worst; an ex-Swiss Army, I think...

I thought I had fixed them by changing the file extension from ".JPG" to ".jpg".
I even was able to see the pics in my post.
Something strange is going on.
Xavi, you should be able to click the pics in my post and see them.

After a 3 hours journey we reached my grandma's village.

I took her in the back garden, and for the next 4 days, from 9 AM till 10 PM, I was on top, inside and under her. Dancing

Otherwise, she's in great shape, but lots of ambulance parts are missing.

No seats, just a stretcher.

Nice that you have the stretcher. I bet that is harder to find than the missing ambulance fans...
