I winched Murray on to his trailer yesterday and took him out to Wayout
Salvage. Derrick and Danny inspected him carefully and kinda declared him
DOA. We figured that we would have to, basically, cut off everything from
under the roof to the B pillar, and were looking at $5K, pretty much as
Will said. I looked at a '67 that I could gut completely and transfer all
the mechanicals from Murray. Really, build a new bus that wouldn't be
Murray.
Interesting concept, at what point does a repair make him no longer
Murray? The engine and running gear or the body? Where is the soul of a
bus?
Anyway, as I was getting increasingly depressed, Derrick sent me to a guy
in Berryville who has a reputation for pulling and straightening cars that
are beyond saving. He looked at it and pronounced that he could fix this,
but that it could take more than two day's work. I personally saw a notch
that was really destroyed in an accident and that I thought had died, but
was put back on the road. Now, I find that this was the guy that did it.
So, I am to call him today and see if he can start on Murray tomorrow and
I get to watch. Let's all cross our fingers and toes.
PSYCOBLOOIE!!! Julie is, apparently, this year's dynamite jockey. She will
be transporting the fireworks. Pray for her. Dan and Kat have finally
confirmed that they will be here, probably Friday, stylin' in a 2008 Jetta
to show us how the upper crust live. Brown Bus Mike is coming on Wednesday
to take all the best spots. Steve and Sharon and Dennis and Claudia and
maybe Mike say Friday, Paul and corn on Saturday. Where is Shirley?
Somebody get to Shirley. Robb and his entourage have said "Maybe". If I
have not mentioned any of you that are coming just chalk it up to my
mental state.
All you that are coming need to shame and cajole the ones who say no or on
the fence. If you can't make it, we still love you, but you will forever
be the Ones Who Weren't Here. And nobody wants that, do they? No.
