Title: Throwing in the towel
Post by: Dale MC8 on December 03, 2007, 09:07:11 AM
Well, I hate to give in, but all I've been able to do with my coach is pay storage for it and the 'stuff' I've accumulated to go in it. SOOOOOOOO, its on the market.

I had great plans for my rolling home but the loss of my help-mate in the early days of the conversion, shortage of time, shortage of funds and loss of my workplace has done me in.

The 'stuff' I have accumulated includes some quality equipment. I also have many tools that I'm willing to part with that could make the conversion and maintenance easier.

Check the classifieds, get in touch with me and maybe together we can bring this to a win-win conclusion.

It's about halfway down on the right side, Nick. Text ad that says 1977 MC8.

Dale, I hate to hear that you are giving it up. But if you have anything that I could use in my Eagle conversion I might be interested. You're not all that far away from me. If you have a list you want to send me, my e-mail is songman at bak.rr.com.

Dale, don't be too rough on yourself. The wonderful thing about dreams is that they're dreams. Some come to fruition...some don't. But wasn't it fun while it lasted?

There'll be someone who'll, hopefully, pick up on your dream...even if only in the inspiration...the journey..we like to call it...and dream the dreams which you did and make you dream come true...with his hands and your heart.

My best wishes to you in your future...please stay with us..BusNuts are like Marines....we're forever.

Dale MC8,
I don't know you, but a bus nut tells me all.
I wish you the best.
