I like the Elvis view but a Type -2 parked in front of the "Towing & Recovery Museum" kinda brings something else to mine ;) ;) ( I bet you were expecting that comment)  ;D ;D

Yeah, you caught me.... It's actuallly part of a period exhibit, showing what would be towed around 1969.... hahaha...  :D

I just made sure to get all the pics taken fast enough so nobody thought it was an abandoned vehicle...

 :-[

Funny part was how many people besides me were taking pictures of it.  I had several down along the riverfront, another one down near St. Elmo, one hanging out of a van snapping a pic with their iPad near the Choo-Choo, and I did hear one girl shout out "Green One!" before punching the crap out of the dude standing next to her.   :D

Fun Times......

That was one of the ones I took down at Engel Stadium... kinda sad to see it just sitting like that, all lonely and stuff.   :(

Drove the bus in to work today... I gotta do something about these seat covers...

Heat would also be nice...


She still runs flawlessly, and I have been using her as a workhorse all winter, clearing out stuff, hauling loads.... I do likes my bus.   8)

In a bus?  Really?

Keep going down that road and you'll be wishing for something resembling real acceleration when you hit the gas pedal.  It's a slippery slope...     ;)

I guess I should have said "Trickle of Luke Warm Air", not "Heat"... that's more realistic when it's all in working order...  :D

I was quite proud of Kermit's heat the other morning he actually defrosted the windows, and it was only 65* outside!
LOL.

For the record, It's too early to say how good mine actually will be.  I am running J-tubes and the heater tube is still sitting, propped in the corner by a door at work...

You might say I have a way to go.   ;)
