Bus itself was complete, but very rough... not much rust to speak of... all the curtains were hanging in shreds... rubber was dried to crusts... top canvas had been painted with spray paint..(looks like it was an attempt to make the canvas more "room-darkening"...) Gentleman didn't really want to sell it at that point 'cause it was his only running vehicle...! supposedly he has 6-12 cars/busses in various states of disrepair on his property which are all "projects" that he'll get to someday...
