Problem is, we don't know exactly where it is. From Google Earth, you can see nothing but miles of woods. That, and there is no Courthouse in Dewsville. It appears to be a ghost town at this point.

Mark,
That's a site I never used before. Very helpful. I actually tracked down her parents phone number, using information from the tax dept. link that Josh posted. I gave that information to a friend in Northern Georgia, because he has the right accent for the job! I'll pass this on to him as well.
Thanks,
Chuck

Seems that she replies to peoples comments on the photos. Have you tried that?

Btw. Nice tow truck, its the correct color to be one of your fleet? Am i right? Haha
Did you road trip out to California to get the bus?

Cant wait to see 4x4 under it...
Thought people might like to see the front of the rollback.

Nice dentside roll back. I drove a 73 F700 during the summer between high school and college when I worked for a lumber yard. It was a flatbed high lift which when you pulled two pins it became a dump bed. Of course I wasn't the sole driver as the full time worker called it his. I usually got the older Fords or an International.

The major things are the seats, and a heater, along with the defrost pipe, and channels for the windshield. Also need the wide rubber part on one of the front doors. On the interior, where panels are joined together, they used special metal channels with domed covers to conceal the screws. Kinda reminds me of wiremold, but much flatter. Some of mine have the edges rotted off, so I need several feet of it from another bus.

Here are a few pictures.
There is a louvered panel on the outside of the bus, below the driver's window on buses equipped with the factory heater. My bus has a small, aftermarket heater under the dash that needs to go.
The trim strips are hard to see in this picture, but you can see where they are. The ones above my windows are the ones that got rusted. The ones that go across the ceiling are mint, so they probably would be in other buses too.

Great progress. No snow days with a Coleman school bus. All the needed trim sure gives new meaning to the term "unobtainium". Knowing Chuck he'll find it all. Stu
