Hi James, I'm not in the market for another right now, and would be happy to make sure you pay reasonable bucks for a Bus. I just happen to be putting back together a very original '62 23-window that I've had for over 13 years. I'd be happy to look at pictures and suggest questions and a reasonable price to work toward. I can be reached at pcalbar@xxxxxxxxxxx or (210)559-1214. Let me know if I can help, Peter BlackBerry service provided by Nextel -----Original Message----- From: James Dwan <james_dwan_2000@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 05 Feb 2007 17:23:07 To:tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tcb] So I found this 23 window for sale... Hi everyone, I found a 62 and the price is reasonable but the middle seat is the wrong year and all the pans have been replaced with newer ones - do the judges count off alot for that kinda thing? I am not buying it just for shows but if I bite the bullet and sell my first born child I wanna get my moneys worth and I am wondering how that might lower the worth vs. what I pay for it and the possible resale in case of an emergency. He hasn't mentioned any awards just that people admire it at shows. It looks in great shape - complete resto - and he says no rust and new engine. What do ya'll think it would be worth? Thanks in advance for any advice - first split and don't wanna regret it later - then again I don't wanna miss the opportunity to buy one before they all end up accross the pond : P James DAC '73/'77 Westfakia '78 Super Vert ---------------- Don't be flakey.
