I have not been on the board for several months, Because of age and bad health. The coach is just sitting there and not going any were. It makes me sad that I no longer fell the earge to go any were. I will let it go for most any offer. Most know that this a well built coach. Come look. Fred Old North Florida Bus Conversion shop

Fred, sorry your not feeling well and not able to do the things you love. I wish you the best.

Someone is not only going to get a great bus but have bragging rights to "FRED's" bus.

Fred Hobe?! Glad to hear from you. Spoke with you a few times a couple of years ago when we were working on our own conversion. Spent a ton of time on your site too. Thank you for all of the advice you've lent to us bus builders. Thanks so much! Sorry to hear you're selling you coach. Well built is an understatement. Where can we see the latest pics?

I'm sorry to hear that Fred. I remember seeing your posts many years ago all the time on here. I don't own a bus but I remember your posts were always interesting and informative with a often a good measure of humor. The good Lord will always be with you no matter which direction your life goes so I will pray for you.

 :(  Fred, sorry to hear about your health.  I will be praying for you. 

I have very much benefitted from your "how to's" over the years.  There are still quite a few of them over at the coach conversion central website http://users.cwnet.com/thall/index.htm (http://users.cwnet.com/thall/index.htm)

I know how hard it must be to let go of your bus.  I could only hope that a family member will be interested, and share your passion.

Thanks for your help!  I am very grateful!

Fred,

I was sure that you were never going to get old like the rest of us.  Best wishes for whatever the next chapter brings.

Sorry to hear of the health issues. I too have spent many hours reading your articles and tips. You're the only one who knew my MCI 7 had a 9 cap and windshields along with the R&M front.
