Should we invite the Ebay panel man in here for this discussion?

Hell yeah, bring him on in... Maybe he should have a pacemaker check first because I have no mercy!!

[yetibone]

No, I'm not going to incite a brawl on Germanlook...

I just asked him a couple of questions on the auction page....

Sorry guys, been a little busy. Mowing season. Its how I make extra cash to fund ridiculous projects and tools.

About the bus... good luck to Jim! Thats more than double his money... IF it sells. He writes a beautiful ad.

Mid-engined bus Jake? Hummm... would love to hear how you would tackle something like that (engine/tranny choices) since its so different than your usual projects. I've seen how creative you are, bet it would be a jaw dropper.

Thanks Panel...

I would not be building the Bus, there is a team of individuals that make my creativity look lame that would be doing the building...

It would not be a "show car" and probably would not have a shiny part on it. But it would forever change the face of four stroke I.C. engines with it's powerplant.

I feel I pi$$ed him off a little. I wrote to him...

Obviously, the cargo compartment has been upholstered, and a sound system installed, but I remember at the time I saw it the rear brakes were CB Performance Roto-Hub assemblies, and the cooling system consisted of a single radiator.

His reply,

I was hoping the question would be on the auction page. So far it isn't.
