That's the Braum's on White Settlement road west of down town. I used to live on that street years ago. Never seen the bus before though.

Spotted east of Cleveland, sorry about poorly framed and focused pics I was in express lanes doing 70 and passenger only had a few seconds to get the pics. Bus looked really nice and restored to a high standard.

^^^Yep. John and Gretchen are down there for the Score, Baja 500 event. KCW put a 'class11' bug together for a customer. Last I heard for the KCW site, the entry is out of the race.

I saw on the original thread (that has since been locked I believe?) that Peter said he was finally on his way to come get the bus. Is he actually coming to get it or is it going to be sold? |

Peter came & got his Bus, I charged the battery over the weekend, it still needed a Jump, and some tapping on the starter, but it fired up, and it's gone !
