I still call your bus Fred.? I loved seeing it on the road that day with no

I don't have any history on my bus except that it was a Texas delivery bus.
I don't know any of the previous owners, but they must have been toothless
rednecks because the repairs were really, really bad.
Took me a long time to get this bus driving and looking [relatively] decent.
