at about 300 a ton, scrap value is a very good deal..

  Hitting pay dirt like that twice in a row, John, your blessed. Not sure if God likes the Lottery, but if there were any chance, that would be it.

  I sent you a PM John.

John just an idea? As cheap as some buses are going for and the price of wall materials. You could get a couple of MC 9's and park them on each side and weld the trusses to the top at the apex of the truss instead of walls. Hey you would even have some sliding windows in the sides as well as offices down both sides. Your welcome. LOL
