My 66 that I sold to Steve and Sharon and they sold to Lu and Jane and just got
back from Colorada in it had a green under side that was as clean as a baby's
hieny . the inside floors and and walls and everything was the same green from
the factory. But I think that it was a m code thing.You gotta love those clean
Nevada busses.Still kickin my ***ss for selling it.
