its not really a 'rescue mission' when, in the end all your gonna do is scrap her.

maybe call it the 'parts bin' 'salvage' mission.

the buses dont neccessarily hav to be scrapped, i am more than happy to sell to someone who wants to restore it, id much rather do that than strip it for parts, id even sell it for alot less if i knew it would b restored. but i think anythings better than leaving them there to perish further, at least they will be able to help others get their buses on the road.
