The mechanic is cool, name is "Ed". But yeah, the mouthpiece is really annoying. They put a horrible looking exterior wrap on it and indoor/outdoor carpet inside. Would have been better just fixing the mechanicals and driving it with the existing charm and patina. The vids are on youtube. Here is one, many more are on the website. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkXynWOUyEs&feature=related

It's on Dish Network (HD Theater channel); not sure who else carries it. http://www.locatetv.com/tv/wheeler-dealers/71931/schedule#01-Nov-2009 - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT |
