Virginia to West Palm Beach

As some might know, I was looking for a bus, after my big fail with the other 71..SO with hrs on the computer searching and searching I had a few options it only took like a month and half, but!!!! I left friday morning in a spur of the moment thing I went to work and my tow truck blew a seal oil everywhere so my boss said I could have off for the weekend!!? cool! can I go to Virginia?? he said he'd go with me lets go!! so within an hr I packed a pair of pants socks and extra shirt, went to the bank!! went to u-haul picked up a trailer and headed north!! Richmond VA here we come, 898 miles door to door we drove straight thru!! got to Va at about 3:30 am waited till 6am to meet with the guy.. oh by the way this is a bus I found on The Samba, after taking a good look at the bus driving it around for a bit!! DEAL WAS MADE back on the road at 7:30 now with a dodge ram V-6 a heavy u-haul trailer and a bus!! lets just say gas was not my freind BUT we made it!! and the end result!!!!! well take a gander!!








Back in West palm Beach!!!

OH YEAH!!! this bus has so much character!! the "rusty" will deff. be a parts bus for now, Im gonna drop the motor and trans, keep that as a spare.. anybody need parts?? there is a few things ima keep but not much.. its got a real nice rubber mat for the floor, dash is good alot of stuff from that bus are good just not anything metal

Save the dash fer me .got a crack in mine!

Middle seat?

Nice Bus, that's one industrial looking drink holder bolted to the dash. Soooo much nicer looking than the rusty Bus!

Very nice! I was looking at that one before I bought my Bug. Looks like a nice solid Bus
