Title: Just when you least expect it, the phone rings

Friend asked if I was still look'n for a bus......... Yes, why? He told me he spoted a '48 silverside sit'n in a building , he had worked the guy up cold and had his phone number ready. This ole girl was only 25 miles from me, so I headed out. Super nice people, been sitting in a quality building for right at 10 years , Never moved out of the building after he brought it home. It had both Hounds on the sides and a small letter from Greyhound giving him permission to use the emblems.

What I was interested in spending and what they were asking was a fair spread so I just gave her some attention, rubbed her in a few spots and pushed some of the stuff stacked on her sides back to the shed walls. Overall a Very cool bus and not to shabby conversion.

Just wanted to share.
