^^ Good times- somebody should put a new nose and floor back on that and start driving it. I have seen far far worse than that saved!

It’s been sold twice in the last couple months and will likely be sold again soon

Its too bad it didnt stay in Washington with locals.

It really is too bad, I made an offer on it back in April, was never accepted or declined, guy said he would let me know what family says on price, never did. I hate that fukn guy.

Pretty respectable page 1000 finds. Amazing how dry and original/complete the BD panel is.

Isn't that BD in Skinner's hands now?

A 15 window, 21 window and a barndoor on page 1000 is awesome. =D>

This is cool. That 15 looks like it was siting in the Badlands country of Eastern Montana/The Dakotas.

Robert was cutting off the welded on front bumper today

IDKY but I’ve been waiting for page 1000 and the finds made it get slower and slower till we got here!

Yep I’ll be honest just finding anything to say to post on page 1000.

I’ll leave the ketchup trick. Tomato ketchup is great at cleaning brass connections that can’t be removed from the vehicle. Just make sure you wash up properly after your dinner!

If this bus wasn't "shotgunned", what caused the peppered look? :?
