hell yeah,
the thing is im the second person to respond to the ad, the seller is going to give the first person dibs, but if he is slacking in any way i get the car.
i even offered to send him the $200 in advance for the vehicle to show that i was serious
this plus the $500 van i might be getting and the schoolbusses ! its crazy!

well if i actually get one im probably going to re-sell it as soon as i can, but the title papers usually take a month, so there is a chance ill be driving it for a that time.
the only problem with busses, and the ol' box truck i used to drive/ live in is parking the motherfuckers.
it aint easy, especially in big cities. but you can live in it so paying for p arking is kind of like paying for rent.

Nothing ... It kinda freaked me out so I decided, after much consideration, not to cash it for sake of not wanting to sleep with the fishes. I am goingto take a pic and post it on here as soon as I find a friend that has a digi.

a diesel 
i can just dump vegetable oil into the main tank, no conversion needed, as long as it stays around 80, below that i need to mix a little diesel, or kerosene.
i prefer to call them Grease cars, but thats the name of a company so "one tanker" will do
