Interesting that the seller has this bus but doesn't know how to count the 
windows.  The seller also states, "show winner" but doesn't mention the show.  
Hmmmm

Yep, that's what I told the guy.  And it's not a 13 window, it is an 11 
window.  I was just hopeing that someone on the list had some personal 
knowledge of the bus.
