It's been over two years since OP was on the board.

It's unlikely that you will get a response.

Reality bites. I'm astounded at all these guys and their fantasies. It's a Crown for God's sake, leave it alone or get something else you can cut and chop on with no harm done to a truly Classic American Icon. I'm sure it's sitting and now rotting away because.... Reality.....Gets 'em all.

Either he found out that raising a Crown's roof is not easy (as I mentioned earlier), or that removing all the sidewalls' inner panels has opened up a can o' worms because of Crown's unique sidewall construction. Yes, I fear this bus is festering somewhere and is now only good for the knacker's yard. Too bad.

2 years sitting in Cali sun should not hurt it too much, body wise.
More than likely he's abandoned the project or sold it, leaving us all in the lurch!!!?
