The interior was done up like an old comfortable leather chair with some hi tech stuff added in, and I understood it was an awesome plane. I heard the next week that on his return home he ran it out of fuel near his home. He apparently had trouble connecting with the refueling guy before he left. Story was he was a commercial pilot. Don't know about all the rest, but that plane was a beauty.

Weird Bus - looks like it was a camper conversion of a sunroof bus? Any idea the year or the conversion company?

Forgot I had this. Took the shot in 07 on the way home from my Route 66 trip. I think it used to belong to a guy who was a frequent poster here when I joined. Howard Agency? IIRC he was something else!

Looks like a westfalia poptop without the poptop. There was an SO with the SO42 style poptop on a bay window bus, but I can't remember the code.
