I know Mike is on the road and don't know if he has internet access at the present time.  Mike painted his bus inside his shop after setting up fans and screen doors for proper ventilation (screen doors in the overhead door opening with the overhead door resting on top of the screen doors). He used his forklift to keep the painter in the proper position.  Having seen the paint job "up close and personal" as well as the beautiful interior that his his wife did (complete with stained glass cabinet doors), this is one beautiful coach.  Jack

When we were working our way north from Jacks, we stopped in at mikes, he was still working on the engine replacement at that time, his attention to detail was absolute, if the paint job is anything like the results of that it's a great job.  I still remember looking up and seeing a riding lawn mower up on a shelf near the ceiling of his shop and scratching my head, mike pointed to a fork lift over on the side lol.  Mike and his lovely bride are coming thru this area in a bit, I'm anxious to see them again, all good people.
