Re: Spotting!

Stopped and talked to the guy tonight. He is from Calgary area and he has 8 buses and various limos and other cool toys! I asked him about Skoolie and he said he has been on here so we might see him check in lol.

the bus is a 1957 but was retrofitted by a conversion company in the 70's. the 3 AC's were put in then because its from Branson, Missouri! It's quite an impressive bus indeed!
