We'll see. Met him about 2 years ago and seems to be an alright guy, but haven't had any dealings with him really. Does lots of ads on the Samba and seems to have lots of bus stuff. Don't know if he fits in the flipper category or not. He has a guy making some really nice bus tow bars which he started selling recently. Started out at $200 but has gone up to $220 but they are the best ones I have seen. Talked to James King who has one and used it extensively already and he gave it high praise. I bought one from him, you never know when you may need one. I will attest to the fact that he is hard to reach on the phone but he has always responded in the past to my e-mails rather promptly. Time will tell how he works out in the bus world. Peter Albarian <pcalbar@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: I tried buying an early Bus from Charles about 5 months ago.
