Re: Month of May camp out?

Buses N Boats is something I'm doing, so I'll miss this one, also, if it turns out to be the same weekend. Sounds like a great time and place though - hopefully they don't overlap. I haven't seen any definitive date on Baker's campout .

Re: Some misc projects 1

You are going to wonder how you ever lived without that parcel tray. I wasn't able to get my E-Brake handle off, so I had to cut a slit in the tray to slip over the brake rod which was a PITA. The only problem is the drink holders are worthless. But they are great for holding Turnpike change. I can...

E-bay. $7.98 and free shipping all the way from shang hai! Even if it craps out, your not out much. I like the fact that the lights will rotate to any angle, as bus windows are vertical and most are not, making it universal.

Some misc projects 3

Done a few upgrades over the last year and thought I'd catalog them for anyone interested. Don't mean to bore everyone, but they might be some things someone else may be thinking of doing and a pic is worth a zillion words or maybe something I can help you with. Currently working on the doors and lo...

Re: The Big Spud "Mashed potaters"

Resurrected this, as I forgot to show the final results. New garage now faces the street, is insulated, has 8' doors (it was always a close call with the bus before), another single garage door going out back to a concrete pad. Oh yeah - new roof, windows, and faux shake siding. Had to ride the cont...
