http://www.bitswap.com/forums/html/emoticons/ponder2.gifits not really a 'rescue mission' when, in the end all your gonna do is scrap her. http://www.bitswap.com/forums/html/emoticons/confussed.gif

maybe call it the 'parts bin' http://www.bitswap.com/forums/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif 'salvage' mission.

Deffinately a "MISSION":bounce

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.

Hey Sam,
I just got a 58 looks pretty similar.
If you are parting it out let me know...
I'm chasing back tail lights & a back bumper (ribbed)
