LEAKOIL Forum

I deeply respect your wife's choice of football teams. Go Browns. My 13 year old will only eat "Hunt's" ketchup becasue of "Heinz Field". No joke.

Anyway, the bus is orange so you're wife is good to go!

I think it's a great buy and I'm glad it's staying here in Ohio. I looked it over closely at Nelson's and Ken's this past summer. It's a great bus with a lot of potential.

Those bay passenger buses are great. The middle seat makes all the difference. You can haul a lot of people in them. It seems that they are becoming scarce since everyone saves the campers, but not the 'people movers'. Can't wait to meet you and the Mrs. at a LEAKOIL event. And it sounds like you're a Fireman to 'boot'.

I never thought of those seat covers being "Steelers" colors but my bus is yellow, and they would match nicely! Sell or trade for something, Jim? (I hope your wife didn't BURN them yet )

Something can be worked out Howie......... I will be needing a couple of front seats

Can't help you with the seats- I'm using the only ones I have. Bring those seat covers to the next Leakoil event, and we will do some haggling and I'll take them off your hands.

I got a call from hosedrag_r (Jim) a couple days ago. He was at Kristen's house removing an interior from a '78 (?) bus that Kristen was parting-out. It seems Jim's wife has decided she wanted to keep the passenger interior in her bus but there were some issues with the condition and color. Jim, being the smart guy that he is, decided to keep mama happy and found this nice interior from Tristen.
Since I didn't have much going on that morning I decided to give him a hand.

By the time I got there Jim had already had most of the interior out. This guy is darn good mechanic and works with the precision of a surgeon. All I did was help him load the pick-up.

Can't wait to their bus when it's done.

Lookin' good! I hope he didn't drop any cigarette ashes on that seat!
Anything good left on Tristan's 78 bus? I need a slider door panel and a rear license plate light lense.

The slider door panel is gone. Don't know about the light. Tristen?

Shoot! A day late and a dollar short again. I just really need a junked panel for a template. I have some nice Luan panelling here ready to be cut to shape.

The license plate light lens was broken....... But if your good Howie with super glue and tweezers you might get it together.......... I got the old slider panel of the bus ......... good for template.......

Hey is that a 66 Ruby Red Bug next to the orange bus?
