I know he really really wanted a Barndoor and that was the one to have at a decent price.

Those panels hanging on Georges wall were meant to go on that bus.


I think it might be a early "April Fools Joke"

I don't know if it's sold or moved or whatever but it seemed clear to me that the original pictures are transfers from an old movie. Probably 8 mm as someone originally posted near the beginning of this thread.

Proper Mekkie pronounciation = ( Kah Yeh Seh )

Obus........this also means be quiet. I just depends how you pronouce it and your facial expressions and lifting your hand up in the air ready for a Bitch Slap.......Then it's serious. But you are also correct.

The og paint Horowitz Deli Delivery truck is kicking it next to El Chewbacca. That bus would look BAD ASS with it's booty laid out on the ground. And most folks aren't aware of this buses history??? And why is it that it stayed so dry, ZERO RUST, and remained in the condition it's currently in!!! When folks see it they automatically assume it came from Arizona or New Mexico. We, as in Jimenetz, Connorwitz & Rothchild LLC, always reply with.......WRONG DESERT!!! This bus was used at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, in Tel Aviv, Israel. Then head Curator of the museum, Aronold Moses Schoenberg, retired in Little Utrecht, the Jewish quarter of P-Town, California (where everyone is a Dutch Jew). This truck is now in commission, though with the Pomona Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art! REALLY!

Gibbs - Hope you and your followers of Abraham have a nice First Seder. I made Gefilte fish for sundown!!!

...Just took some time to upload some more pictures of the "green flash".
These are screenshots of some old 8mm tape that was uncovered last spring. It looks like Werner took it on quite the cross country trek.
Washington DC, New York, Florida, California...
It looks like most of it was filmed in 1961.
I would like to eventually transfer it to a digital format and put it on youtube, but haven't had the time yet.
enjoy...

I am pretty sure the last photo shows a swamp creature in the center background....or it's 10 Foot Doug taking a dip.

Hello Ueberwagen,

Werner Damrath was the son of the 2nd husband of my fathers elder sister. I was surprized to find some personal pictures. From where do you get this material / pictures? Do you have still the old 8mm tape? This is definetely the last possibility to get some pictures of my uncle, who died very surprising in 2003. It would be nice if you can send me the tape so that I can make a copy of it. For short moments my uncle will come alive,
but only with your help. Please be so kind and help me and my brother and sisters. Thanks in advance. Bye, Stefan Montini, Parkstraße 14, 41564 Kaarst, Germany!

Hi- I am now the owner of the Green Flash. I live in New Jersey and would be happy to send any photos of the bus. I know you really want pictures of your relative but I think this bus was a piece of him. Let me know
