Ah ha! So Don has owned some fixer-uppers. When did you work on the bus and where is it now? Great post, thanks! Yes Tom, I have. I should have kept my cousin's former Bus. This Bus was bought in the fall of 2010 and I didn't really get to working on it until later in 2011. It was pretty rust-free and that is why I bought it. After selling the Brasilia Bus to Frank I had to get another Bus…I couldn't help myself The Bus is now in Holland, or last I saw it was being sold in Holland for, get this, 13,900 EUR . YIKES! I sold it to a dealer in Holland who sold it to the guy who was selling it. No wonder the dealer I dealt with didn't worry about the price!!

You're making me kick myself in the butt again and again for selling my welder. Oh well, I suppose if I need to get one again it'll be a mig welder. I have also fallen in love with the new epoxy "welds" and fully intend to use them again. They are so strong I've been told by the guys who run demolition derby cars in the interior that it's banned to use expoxy to put together demo-derby cars, they won't fall apart for the spectators. The only disadvantage is in the case of a big fire, they tend to fall apart then. Stan
