That really sucks! I mean look at all that rusty crap! And you lost atleast one night of sleep I mean come on...










Kidding!



It does pay to be nice! And the other lesson is, drive your bus and good things will come to you!

I'd be willing to give you a couple bucks over what you paid for it... Is that a good number? Very Happy

Nice find...if you part it out, you should busy for a while.

Am I the only one that ponders what happened to the rest of that bumper?

Rule number one of reselling,

"Never tell the buyer what you have in it."

Cool find. Wink

I will double Dave's offer! Laughing


Nice score man. I showed my wife and she said if I came home with that "ugly" thing I would be sleeping alone. I simply replied that the first thing I would do is clean a spot in it to sleep in. Laughing

Best price in the world. Cool

Also, how odd, that a 60's vintage British AA (Automobile Association) badge made it all the way across the pond all those years ago.
