    That's awesome for Marge! I really dig the crew cab hauler though!

    The stereo system will be a blaster. I believe Rich told me a total of 10 speaker will be hooked up through the about 5-7 miles of speaker wire ran in Marge. The "crew cab" isn't a crew cab, but a diesel powered super extended cab built by the shop owner Rich. All four fenders have been widened & it's sitting on a late model frame. Nice truck too, I got to drive it when I was down there earlier this year. It does have some funky outside mirrors on it at the moment but they work great when towing.........joe

    and just to throw in another pic, this is the woman I'll be spending the rest of my life with
    Her name is April & I have my son to thank for me meeting her...

    Crikey!
    It appears congratulations are in order!

    Not only for the bus but for the new woman as well!

    She would appear to be a very pleasant looking young lady; but I'd hold judgement on the fella in the photo...
    (I'm sure I've seen him somewhere...)

    Good luck to both of you!

    Congrats on April! Thanks for the info on his extended cab. That is a nice truck! The sound system in Marge sounds like it will be great!

    None yet except there was a bunch of set backs at the shop over the past months (sickness, deaths, neighbors, code enforcement, etc) and it's still at the upholstery shop getting finished up. Gotta remember she's a big girl and it takes a few miles of cloth to cover her up......

    Sorry to hear of the issues but glad to hear it's still getting worked on. How's everything else been going for you?

    That's bigger than Joe's...it's more the size of ours.

    Need help on bus origins.

    That's a pic of ours as it was when it first arrived on the wharf in NZ.
    It looks a wee bit different now!

    Was told this morning Marge is being picked up from the upholstery shop tomorrow, YEAH.
    All is well with me, still in Florida but am taking a trip back home in June & hopefully driving Marge if all the bugs are worked out if there is any. Gotta check on the house & visit some family & friends for a bit & generally make an appearance...
