Hello Skoolies !

Hey great site. Just bought a 26ft 1966 Chevrolet School Bus. Never would of dreamed to find this place. Hope to meet you all, maybe slam a few burgers some day and a case o beer. The dream is to get her to the Daytona 500 in February of 2009. Let er rip ! May all your brews stay cold, and the engines remain hot.
