Cool site, now I can find out where all the busses are that I want to steal & exactly how to get there Laughing Laughing Twisted Evil

Just kidding, I wouldn't steal your bus, but I'm sure there are some that would.

If anyone would steal your bus, they will find it anyway.

So don't worry, enjoy as as long as you have it! Wink

Don't forget to check out our Dutch site. Wink

www.spijlbusregister.nl

In the right column you will see "bouwjaar 19xx" wich is Dutch for Year of build.
Even if You cant read what's written You can see some nice busses located in the Netherlands.

Obus,
I wouldn't steal your bus, but if I wanted to, all I have to do is get the directions from the site, drive by a couple times that are inconspicuous & when the time is rite, pick it up. I'm in a different state & by the time you had relized it was gone, it would be in a million pieces. You would never know where it went or who has it, so why should I fear you saying "I would have wished I didn't steal it". I have friends that are repo guys & it only takes about 30 seconds to get a car & be gone without a trace. I know of cars stolen from car shows & I'm talking about cars in the show, not in the parking lot. It all boils down to if they want it, they are gonna take it, so why advertise where it is unless it's locked up in a garage.

Like I said befor, it's a cool site, but belive me when I say the people that steal busses are watching.

I prolly have more details as to where my busses are located on this site than on that site. A simple zip code isn't giving anything up. If you want it, come get it.

That's the cool thing about it. I've always wondered what other busses were around me & so far there really isn't any that close.

Obus,
How far from Burlington are you?? Have you ever heard of VOLKS-TECH over there near the burlington bristol bridge?? It was owned buy a guy named Don & the place went to hell, but I was over there a couple weeks ago to see if he had any parts I was looking for & I found out he sold the place to a young guy. The place looked alot better & I think he had 2 or 3 splitts over there. I know one was a single.
Clarences over in riverside has a late 50's panel & a 60 somthing 21 window sitting in his lot. I don't know if you ever heard of his place, but it's not far from volks-tech.
