In need of a complete battery door for our MCI 7. Ours was torn off in a construction zone on I 17 when I had a choice hit the wood pilon or a construction worker who was almost in the road.
Thanks

Hi Ed,

Is Mando still selling bus parts - used to be Complete Coach Works?  We bought a used MCI door for our DL3 from him about 4 yrs ago.  Mando Aguirre.  Also some radiators for our MC9 before that.  A few other items but it has been about 4 yrs.  A long time in this industry.  He used to have a huge inventory at one point.

Let me know and I can PM or send you his #. 

Hope this helps, Phil

Thanks Cliff, it sounds like he left the world of bus parts?

Ed have you tried IBP in Florida? I don't own a 7 but an ancient 5 and he helped me out with some more panels just last year. I think he has all the prints and gets them pressed.

IBP  - good idea.  They've helped me out in the past with some unusual panels.
