I would love to see some of the coach pics form Bussin '05 when somebody has an opportunity to upload them to a site. I attended with my Fiance' last year and had a great time. I will see any and all that attend in '06.

IF anyone from CA is visiting FL this winter , I have an item (eutetic plate about 18 in X 38in X 2 in and 60lbs) that needs a ride to the Left coast.

Come watch the aligators frolic,
(actually they just sleep in the weeds)
and do a busnut a favor.

That's just the Stainless, Polished (Right?)

That is one cool bus.

Isn't that Sean's Neoplan right next to it?

Yeah, that one was pictured last year. It's a beaut. Now here's a question - which annoys neighbors more, starting a diesel in the morning, or a harley?

That is a trick question--the answer is neither.

I'll let you know though, I have both.

They are building McMansions right next door to me, I fully plan to be the most annoying neighbor they ever thought of having, unfortunately (Or Fortunately), I'll be competing with the teenager-rap-garage band across the street.

Yeah, that's a beauty. I saw that last year. I beleive the owner is a fella named Pat McNeil. I beleive that he had that stainless applied in Florida. It's rivetless and was glued on if memory serves me correctly. Again, one hell of a nice rig. Looks like he has painted the exterior since last year. Any one have his contact info? He lives close to my Wash, DC address. I'd like to contact him.

Peace,

Eric

The red Scenicruiser has polished stainless skins from International Bus & Parts in Florida. I looked into doing the same for my 'cruiser, but the cost is much more than I can hide from my wife!

That bus also has 8v92 power and I believe it was stretched to 45 feet. I spent a little time with Pat at Daytona Speedway during Bike Week the last couple of years and saw the inside. At that time it was primarily just plywood lined and he was "camping" in it. From what I saw the outside workmanship will extend to the inside when it is completed. Looks like the paint job was recently completed as the last time I saw it it was red but kind of partialy done.

Eric -
His last name is McNeil - not sure of first - he lives in Baltimore and owns at least one bar - can't remember the name - down south of Camden Yards - the paint job is new - it is not really stretched - he built a whole new frame - its 16 inches longer in front of steers and the rest is between steers and drive - the only thing original is the roof - its still plywood inside - metal is glued, said he used 2 fork lifts and heat to apply skins - the fit and finish is trim free and IMHO better than robotic application - One of the nicest buses i've ever seen - Ian should have his info when he posts pics -

Pat also used 4106 windows in his Scenic - they're 4" taller than the originals.

Here's another pic of his coach, this one taken last year at Jack's:

Pat

Will be a great coach when he gets it finished!!
