Re: The Cockabus is for sale!

Bummer your selling but totally understand why.

Just a heads up the gallery is out of commission so I would have pics handy or maybe post them in a publie folder on maybe photbucket?

I have really liked looking at many things that were done on this bus. Very good quality. I have also bought some parts with downsouth..... Very good man to do business with. You will have great quality on both ends of the business.


Best of luck on this

Re: The Cockabus is for sale!

From what I have read about the gallery is there are some spam bots that junked it up and took it down. From what i gather we are going to have to change servers? I dont see it coming up any time soon so I would get something else in place.

Take the bus (& paperwork just in case) to some of the games and slap a big FOR SALE sign on it. Lots of folks would say "Gee, wouldn't that be nice?". Might get a buyer?

Re: The Cockabus is for sale!

I was going to say I thought it was quite steep also.

Just goes to show you, you never know when you might find the right buyer!

I am very glad you got your price!

Re: The Cockabus is for sale!

Im glad but sad you sold it. I have really enjoyed your pictures and came away with a lot of good ideas I will use on mine. I am sure the short bus will be just as good.

Not sure what I can do to help you but if theres something in or around my area let me know Ill do a look see for ya
