Bus Conversion  Magazine Update:
I just wanted to give you Bus Nuts an update on the status of the long awaited Bus Conversion magazine.  The magazine as well as the website is under new ownership.  While you won't see any significant changes in the magazine right away, except that it will be thinner than most recent issues at first, the website is undergoing significant changes that will be revealed very soon.  The October 2012 issue is going to the printer this week and should be mailed out the by end of next week. 
We are honoring all past and missing subscriptions so money for the printing and postage of the magazine is being financed solely by the new owner, which indicates he is confident in the magazines future and is in it for the long haul. 
We know that the subscribers, writers and advertisers make the magazine what it is and our plan is to grow it back to what it was a few years ago, and improve on that.  That being said, if anybody is willing to submit an article or would like to advertise in the magazine, or know anyone that would, anything you can contribute is appreciated.  The deadline for submissions for next month's issue is the last day of this month.
We hope everyone will be excited in the resurrection of the magazine and realize it is a group effort.  Any articles or information you can provide to help the magazine gain momentum is greatly appreciated.  Our goal is to increase the page count of the magazine each month but we can only do it with your support.
If anyone has had a change of address since they received their last magazine-or say within the last 18 months, please email your new address to subscriptions@busconversions.com.  Bulk mail will not forward magazines. 
If anyone is interested in advertising or has questions about advertising, send an email to ads@busconversions.com.
If anyone has an article to submit or has questions about writing an article, send an email to editor@busconversions.com.
For all other general questions and issues, email me at kellie@busconversions.com or call 714-520-1784
Thanks in advance you for your continued support.

Well, I'm sure excited and happy to hear the news, and I bet many others on this board and others will be glad to hear your news and will throw their support behind the new owners and the efforts to make the magazine viable. 

When we look at what we spend on fuel, oil, upkeep and repairs, I never thought my subscription cost was much at all. .  .so you can be sure I'll be renewing!  Hopefully many others will make the effort to help you succeed!

Good luck, Christy HIcks
