Hahaha Kevin - I do kid! Although I sense reading glasses may be on the horizon!

I can just imagine a midget cruising that thing! :joker:

Blasphemy! Both of them! I must shield my eyes!
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

When I first purchased my home (6yrs) I spied a bus rotting away in someones backyard. I couldn't see it very well. After knocking on the door and speaking to the owner, he stated he was "working on it". He took me around back to show me his bus. Horrible. A split window "shorty". May it rott in peace in his back yard. Poor thing :(

Auction ended. 0 bids. Such a surprise. If he'd move the decimal point 4 places to the left (on the starting bid), he might get a little action...
