I think that I am dealing with very unsophisticated thieves here. If they were so smart, they'd a already had the bus :( :) I have talked to some other bus owners with similar problems, and they have a good idea who it is, its just hard to prove it or catch them at it. There are a lot of young guys (16-21 +/-) that are getting into the bus scene and have no cash or scruples, and have no qualms about swiping a bus for the cool parts and then dumping it in the river. Its happened a few times already. They especially seem to love safari windows.
