I was thinking the same thing. The $8500 for the white one I thought was a bit much, but the green one sealed the opinion.

No shit! I spoke to that gentleman last year posing for a photo with my bus… He "saw a twenty five window on TV go for a lot of money" and just kept pestering me about the price of mine and telling me what I should do to it.
If you're ever that way again, one of the finest foods I've ever eaten is a donut from Twin Peaks Coffee & Donuts in Tannersville, NY. The coffee doesn't suck there either.
Gotta find the photo now…

All of those 25 window buses go for a lot of money.

| Its interesting to view others sense of distance. "next time in the area" The Bay windows for sale on Route 9w and the Twin peaks Donut shop are 1-1/2 hour drive apart. I guess when you are driving from California they are next to each other. Maybe Robbie can convince me its worth it for me to drive the 1-1/2 hour drive for Donuts, from Connecticut. Its all relative. |

Ha! When my “on the way” encompasses a 15,000 mile road trip, yeah my perspective gets a little skewed..... 930 miles for a hamburger is still my worst, but I promise the donuts are worth an hour and a half!
Jason, I thought I had a wider shot with all the buses, but I can’t find my camera. My friend sent me this, of the rest of his collection.

Yesterday afternoon, about 3:30. Westbound I 90 about 20 miles East of Missoula MT. White early bay Westy, black bra, Texas plates that said something like VWTYPE2 or similar.
No chance of a photo, as I was unprepared and driving 75 in my modern appliance.
Whoever you are, nice bus. Have a safe trip.

Spotted in Portland a couple weeks ago on vacation! Loved the stripes, so I had to snap a photo. Since then I've seen that it's OG Velvet's bus. Looks good!!

Is the bay hiding behind the split?
