Hello everyone,
I wanted to share this achievement with you all as it was you that made it possible. I am very proud to announce and thank you all for making my website a success which I hope is an indication that I am giving a lot of you good information that may help you, especiallly (wannabee's & newbies). This has been my main goal in my web site to prevent what you see in these photo's to happen to you and educate you from my inexperiences as a converter. A picture is worth 1,000 words it is said, I have many for you to "Read". I should reach my 100,000th hit either tomorrow or Tuesday as my counter now reads 99,760.

MY WEB SITE

The following is the locations of new photo's I have posted today also so you do not have to search for them. These photo's will probably only appeal to newbies /wannabees, they are not pretty to look at but are educational if you want to appreciate the time to do repairs and document them for you. Note: There is one main album, (#12) that has all the photo's if you want to run a photo slide show and there is two sub assemblies of sections of the main album, the sub assemblies are (Albums #12a & #12b).

Here is the albums to look at:
PAGE #2 OF MY ALBUMS

#12 Album, Right Bogie Wheel Welll, all photo's (51 Photo's)

#12a Album, ("Subassembly"), Right Bogie Wheel Fuel Tank Removal & Reassembly. (11 Photo's)

#12b Album, ("Subassembly"), Right Bogie Wheel Torsilastic Disassembly & Re-assembly. (17 Photo's)

Thank you again to those that did view my web site, again I must recant, I am not a professional Bus Converter, these post on my conversion should only be considered a guide used for consideration in doing your repairs to your bus and you should consult a professional bus converter before attempting to do as I have done for professional advise. My information may help assist you in finding problem areas that need addressing.

Thanks also to BNO, (Ian),for allowing me to post this information I have on this bulletin board.

Gary LaBombard

Gary,

You're welcome. A hundred grand - nice milestone. Please feel free to put your URL in the BNO Links section so we can all keep up to date with your web site from there.

For the record, the link you left in the above message is incorrect.

Gary, I think you were trying to type "Webshots" not "Websots" even though there seem to be plenty of those!

Here is the corrected link:

I thought I just sent a reply thanking Ian & Dallas for the correction to my web site announcing my 100,000 hit and for some reason I lost the post, good grief.

Any how thanks so much for making me aware of this texting error and fixing it for me to both of you and the only reason I can figure I did that mistake is I have been preparing those latest photo's for over 12 hours today and everything running together, at least that is my only reason I have. Now I am 1/10th away from my next goal of 1,000,000!!

I tried to edit my text but was unable to change the URL Ian in my original post above.

As someone totally ignorant about the website hits, just what exactly does such a milestone mean? Does it mean you get paid more from advertisers on your site? Does it mean someone may want to buy it? What are the general economics of it? (without getting too personal)

Jim,
Not all websites are designed to generate a profit, it is nice if it does but mine in particular is not intended for that purpose.

My website in paticular is intended to reach those that may be thinking of doing this bus hobby of ours, I am trying to educated them in my mistakes and if they have a bus already perhaps my ideas can help solve any problems they may have.

I am sure not making any profit, infact every day it cost me money to have that website that has peaked now over 100,000 this morning but the cost of having the site is minimal to the rewards I get from those that thank me for the information that they propably would of had to pay a lot of money for if it was availible as I have presented it.

There is many business that depend upon generating profits from their websites that do not reach the mile stone that I have today and it did not cost anyone viewing it one red cent submitted to me for this information.

I'll never be a rich business man by any means but I am very rich in other ways and it has all been since the past 4 years. I get a lot of pleasure knowing that my bus conversion has a lot of interest to all those that have viewed it and continue to look for updates which takes an awful lot of time to generate.

Thanks for the inquiry why I have this site for free, it made me feel good to think of the real reasons I do it, and so often.

Well rather than make another new post I will continue this one, the photos of my (Right Bogie Wheel Well) are posted on my web site as I said I would do. There is two albums of about 35 photos each to make download easier and maybe not so boring. Again these photos are intended for newbies to use a guide for thier conversion purchase / inspection submitted by an amateur bus converter and not to be considered the way your bus has to be repaired. Be sure to consult a certified Bus Converter for professional advise and procedures to fix your personal bus. I am not responsible for injuries, or damage resulting from the information I present to you which should only be considered as only a guide.

Hate doing that!!

The web site location of these two new photo albums to view are located at:

http://community.webshots.com/user/converter101

The Albums are located on Page #3 of the above web site.
(#17-Album, Right Bogie Wheel Well Modifications, (35 photos)
(#17a-Album, Continuation of Right Bogie Wheel Well Modifications, (33 photos)

Hope you enjoy, pictures are not pretty like you want, someday I hope. But I do hope they are informative to those wishing to get into this hobby. Please feel free to request any documentation I may be able to assist you with.

Gary
