Wow rafferty, you consider this bus "raised up"??? Its still pretty damn low, too low for me. I guess it was a hair lower when you had it?

And by the way, Rich was not asleep. This bus was never available to anyone else. I made nothing on the transaction 7 years ago, and in return I got the right to buy it at cost when the time came. I got the call last week. Unfortunately, the guy put quite a but of money in it (not that I am complaining).

By the way Rafferty, you can drive this thing anytime you are out here, including to a show like Kelley Park. I could take another bus.

Idea
to save all that, maybe arrange a straight swap of buses with 10 foot [but keep your sunroof cover;)]

dang, thats an offer i cant refuse Drew.
i wish i could get out to Kelly park. always wanted to check it out. timing is usually the issue.
glad to see you got ahold of it .and at a bargain as it sounds according to todays blown up market.

its not a whole lot higher than when i had it but stance can make a world of difference. looks like he had larger tires also. its all preference anyway.

You will slam a Heb, but not a 23 barndoor? There are more 23 BD's then Hebs? Very Happy Edit: don't get me wrong. I loved the way that you set that Heb up, and my next bus coming will be stock. Way to rare to butcher!! Wink

Shhhh, hes trying to appeal to the owners that might sell but would never dream of it if they knew the guy would turn around and slam it. Laughing I Can't wait to see that bus scraping the clouds again!

So Drew, now that you got excess invetory, are you ready to work a trade on my og paint Binz you've been wanting? Wink

Sounds like the tide is shifting again to BD Deluxes at stock height. I hope to hit the trend at the right time as my bus nears completion.

RAISE THAT THING UP!

I don't think lowered BDs are the trend, they are just easier to finish. stock parts just cost too much and are hard to find so it takes longer. Smile
