Hello everyone,
I wanted to start a post as I am a new bus owner and that is just the beginning of this story.  I will continue to expand on the topic and the adventure I encountered with my new love.
Here is a couple pictures of the bus with my daughter in it.  The first picture is from the first time we ever got to see the bus and the second is from when we picked it up to drive it home from Seattle Washington to Central Illinois.

Again, it is PD4106-2516.

    It's a new Photobucket "feature".  If you have a Photobucket account, you can't see anybody else's Photobucket photos unless you pay them $399 per year.  But don't worry, it's only $49.95 a month!

I will find a new photo host.

I have more pictures coming and some interesting stories to go with it.  I shockenly got lucky with a thorough history, documents, manuals, etc  of the conversion.
I was told it was a trailways bus, but when I googled the number I found that it was originally purchased by Alaska Hyway Tours in Fairbanks Alaska.  It was used to take people between Seattle and Fairbanks.  They bought 3 buses in 1964 the 2513, 2514, and 2516.  They numbered their fleet 109, 110, and 111.
As soon as I get the photo thing figured out, I will post some pictures of my finds as I have searched through the bus to learn it's ins and outs.
