It sounds like you are having your own version of a scraping party with just as many helpers as I have. ----- Original Message ----- From: sammie smith To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, May 12, 2008 11:29 AM Subject: [tcb] Re: Bluebus update Hang in there Chuck. Just think how nice it will be to show up in a good running Blue Bus. And if you want to scrape paint and do body work; I am at work as we speak repairing the rear undercarriage and rear apron of the 51 split bug right now. So come help and I will give you pointers. chuck blue <sukchew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: I sent the transmission in for repair and the preliminary est.was $375.00 ta ?As things turned out the Bluebus had a bug transmission with much bad stuff inside including axles,carrier,brgs, gears and much expensive things.I have got to be SICK I gave the authorision for repair today.Now I am looking for a bank to hold up so I can get Bluebus to the point.Oh well I guess I'll just scrape paint till Hell freezes over.If anyone has a burning desire to scrape paint come on over and we will have a scraping party,Oh and thats's just to get to the sanding and body repair point.I'm depressed and really broke now. Denis must be rejoicing that Bluebus will probably not see the point 5 untill I'm really old a feeble.I don't think he likes me.I think he should warranty the transmission. That's the fair thing to do.I'm depressed.I think I'll go smoke some meat. ole blue ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
