THE LITTLE BUS WITH "CHARACTER"

To all our Cheerleaders help us spread

some Cheer by letting everyone

know where you saw SHORTCUT HIGH!

Thank you for having the bus on display at the south boston speedway Saturday night, sept 17^th I have an 8 yr old cousin of Danville VA. that went crazy when he saw it and he also saw it on monster garage!! He wanted a t-shirt but found out that you could not sell them there, so I promised him I would order him one from your website. If you are ever in the Danville area or closer, please let us know so we can spread the word for the kids to come see this awesome ride!!

Thanks for the great work and for sharing it with all of us.

Hey, I’m 18, and have just graduated from.Farragut High School of Knoxville, TN. first saw this bus in an article in Rod & Custom, and I was astonished at the creativity and design element put into this vehicle. I mean common, who wouldn’t want to be driven to school in ShortcutHigh. Heck, I want to be driven to college in it! Ever since then I have wanted to see it, or something similar. Well, I was recently at the 2005 Silver Dollar Rod Run in Pigeon Forge, TN with my 79 z28 and my girlfriend when it pulled up. I about jumped out of my seat; my girlfriend did. I finally got a chance to see it in person. I have to tell you, the message that came across was astounding. These guys have great talent, and they’ve used it for a great purpose. Keep on rolling!

Kudos to you and your team for the inspirational message that you all provide to our your men and woman of america. Thank You! Our Dozier students are still talking about SHORTCUT HIGH and how very cool the bus is. You guys provided a real live message for our young men that are often unsure of what their future holds for them, especially when it comes to staying in school and achieving the highest levels of academic success. If only we had more dedicated soles spreading the belief of how important staying in school is, our society would certainly be better off. Once again, thank you for putting forth your time and talents toward such a worthy cause.

Dear Jerry Bowers,

My name is Jacob Herr. I am 14 years old and go to Holy Trinity Jr. High
School. It is in Bloomington, Illinois. I love shortcut high! I am a huge
fan. I have a Shortcut High Tshirt and only dream of the real thing coming
to our school. Please make my dream come true. Our school would LOOOVEE for
you to make a stop by our school and let us look at the awsome bus. I have
talked to a few teachers and they even liked the idea but don't think you'll
actually come here. Your right about how it apeals to anyone from small
children to adults. It is very cool how it says to stay in school. It would
mean a lot to all of us if you did come. The Bus is sweeet how it has the
spoiler, big engine in the front,sweet body, nice rims,and it so small and
low ridin! PLease come to our school! If you come to Bloomington and(or)
contact our school here is the information. It is near Chicago in the
central part of Illinois if your looking at a map. Thank you for your time
and consideration!

Hi my name Joe I'm 17 years old, and live in Arnold Nebraska. I seen you twice in Lincoln Ne, I was 13 and 14. You people left a hot spot in my heart. I really wish you would come back to Lincoln. I wont to see that blower bad. I have bout a 65 ford f-100 short box step side. My dad and I put a hopped up 352 in her. One problem is the ford inch can't take the power. I have torn 2 out in one year I guess that I have a lead foot. I have got one speeding ticket 80 in a 60. My dad was a little mad but he did understand. I just told him I had to use the power. My friend have seen the bus I have it as a background on my computer. I would like to tell you that you did make a huge difference in my life. I think of the bus a lot and would like to see it again, but you don't make it to my part of the United States. Please consider coming back to Lincoln. I would really appreciate it if you would consider responding to me. I graduate in one year maybe. I do struggle in high school it is not very easy at all. thank for your time maybe I will get to talk to you again your friend Joe.

WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU. THANKS TROY FRANKLINVILLE NJ

Just wanted to say Than-you, spotted the bus in route 13 in front of Jake's Hamburger stand. Couldn't help from the moment you pulled up,to the moment I left not to admire such a gorgeous work of art and craftmanship. The slogan was the icing on the cake. It makes the meaning of riding the short bus to school a whole new meaning. Thanks again and can't wait to show my 3 children the cool pictures posted on your web sight. THANKS AGAIN!!!!

hello,i am a school bus driver of 27 years. some friends of mine e-mailed me some pics of your bus when they got back from ocean city, md. car show. they also got me one of your t-shirts. i thought it was really neat and a good way to get to the kids of today to stay in school. little did i know that when i went to dover this past weekend for the nascar race that your bus would be there. boy was i thrilled to see it in person. it is the greatest thing i have seen yet. have you considered traveling to schools throughout the U.S. showing the bus and encouraging the kids to stay in school. i drive for the central dauphin school district in pennsylvania. i have also driven for susquehanna township which is close and west shore school district (which is about half way between york and harrisburg). i actually felt a thrill that i haven't felt in a long time for my job. i hope to see more of your bus in the future and i am going to hang photos of your bus at the bus lot where i work. i really think the other drivers will enjoy them too!!!!! thank you so much, judy george p.s. hope i get to see it again in sept at dover downs!!!!!

My name is Rachel B. and my dad and me went to the car show in Shenandoah VA and I really liked the bus. I bought 2 T-shirts and i have all ready wore them at least 5 times and i ware them proudly. We saw the bus at Shenandoah VA memorial day parade on May 24 2003. Ever since the parade, all i have heard about is the bus, like how everybody liked it and how cool it is and stuff like that.I hope to see it again some time soon. And keep on BUSIN!!!!!!!!!!!

fJust saw the bus for the first time this morning on my way to work.....great work! When will you be showing it in the Wilmington area again? We'd love to bring the kids along to check out the fantastic job you did on the bus.

Yo Jerry, Whassup. My name is Josh. I saw the school bus you've done on ur web site! I think you should come over to ENGLAND and do a few shows. As it will really turn heads! Because we have never seen such a cool bus!

Hello,
Me and my son were down at Ocean City, a couple of weeks ago. And my son, he's 4 years old. He really liked your School Bus. He really thinks that your School Bus is for BABIES...
I would like to know when you'll be making a trip to Maryland again, if you could i would love for him to ride it in just for a few blocks....thank You,

WOW!!! We saw the bus, in Belleview, Florida. Everyone on the Hwy was looking at the big yellow bus. My grandson was quite taken and gave a thumbs up. His statement was that if all kids had something that cool to ride in they would definitely enjoy going to school. We could not wait to hit the web to see it again. Thanks for the encouragement for kids to stay in school, how cool.

My two sons were off with grandma and saw the bus on a trailor in the Lowe's parking lot in Mcdonough Georgia. They said it sure was awsome. By the time we went home to get the camera you were gone. Thanks for the good wordsabout staying in school.

Hi, we saw your awesome bus at the corner of International Speedway Blvd. and Clyde Morris Blvd. in Daytona Beach on Saturday afternoon the 22nd Day Of March 2003. I am a substitute Teacher at Mainland High in Daytona Beach, and would like to say that your slogan "Wanna Be Cool... Stay In School" is what I tell my kids everyday. Thanks for this opportunity to enter my sighting

I was driving home from spring break in Gainesville, FL.where I go to school. I saw this crazy looking thing up ahead and as I grew closer I noticed it was a bus, a wicked cool drag-bus of sorts. I actually drove beside you in traffic awhile, the blower singing a sweet tune, the low rumble vibrating my rearview mirror. Looks better than ever next to my station wagon… Certainly brought some fun to my boring old route home.Were you in town for gator nationals?

I cant even begin to tell you how blown away I was when I saw your bus on
wilshire a few days ago.

Hi. We saw your bus here where we live in beautiful LAS VEGAS, NV!!!! My soon to be husband was in awe and made me turn around {in our white Jeep in case you saw him gawking} to follow you down the Strip. We LOVE the message you are speading around the country. :) The bus is the greatest thing he has ever laid eyes on. He couldn't get over it. What a great idea and a great way to spread positive information around the world. Thanks.

I WAS DRIVING ON WILSHIRE BLVD. IN SANTA MONICA CA. ON 10/24/02 AND SAW YOU;RE FINE MACHINE. ALMOST PLOWED INTO PARKED CARS LOOKING AT YOU'RE BUS! THEN SAW YOU AGAIN ON OCEAN AVE. IN SANTA MONICA AGAIN ON 10/25/02 .DUDE ALL SCHOOLS NEED YOU! ANDREW IN W.L.A.

Well, I was going to the bike jumps with all my friends and a bright yellow bus caught my eye.I had to look twice but what I saw was unbelievably awesome.A lowrider chopped school bus. I had a camera with me so I can take pictures of my friends but this was an exception. Not on a trailer I saw the bus parked in a jimboys parking lot in Loomis CA. Hope the rest of my family could see you again in the very small town of LOOMIS.

HI - I saw your bus on a trailer today heading down Highway 99 in Fresno, CA. I just wanted to say I liked your message and your bus sure got my attention. I even checked out your website this evening. I am a high school teacher and I love the positive message you are sending,,,
Thanks for being out there

I saw your way-cool bus yesterday at the California Highway Patrol Cops and Rodders show at the CHP Academy in West Sacramento, Calif. Keep on cruisin'

I saw your lowrider bus on Ocean St. in Santa Cruz, CA on October 10th at around 5pm. It was riding on a
flatbed tow truck. I teach high school in San Jose and my first thoght was "WE NEED ONE OF THOSE!"
That is the coolest school bus in the world hands down!

I was driving home from my trigonometry class at like 6:20 on October 8th and I saw your bus from HWY 49 near Sacramento. I flipped a quick u turn (a legal one) and parked next to the bus in front of Player's Pizza. I had my digital camera and just had to take pictures. Your bus is now on my desk top in all its glory. It has to be one of the coolest cars I have ever seen

A carpool full of State Correctional Officers spotted you west bound Hwy 58 at approx 2:30 pm, Tuesday, October 1st. I think we saw a foxy chick driving. Hey! The bus is cool too man. A routine ride home turned out to be a bit interesting. Thanks!...Pat

i was at route 66 in san bernardino, ca checking out the cars when the bus was going through the parade. it was the neatest thing i have seen. i almost did not go to the car show but was glad i did. i took my kids the next day to see the bus. my 9 yr old robert talked to the lady and was thrilled about the bus. keep on busing

That is one cool bus u have their man i wish i could think of something like that, because my mind is always spinning on how to create something out of the ordinary but you have really hit the spot on that one. I spotted the bus coming down the street at the route 66 reindevous in San Bernardino,CA. I dropped my jaws because all i cuold see was this really wide thing coming towards me, because im short i couldnt see over the people until it got really close and i could see through the crowd

Welcome to San Bernardino, California for the 13th Annual Route 66 Rendezvous. Your bus is delightful and so imaginative. It brought great smiles and laughter as you cruised down the route. We expect a half million people this weekend and we all have a great time. Your bus brings back great memories of those old school buses and the fifties. Thank you for bringing joy to those of us who become teenagers again for the weekend.

Well, it must be you love Ice Cream because like many others have spotted you visiting the I.C. stands, I too met you at a DQ in Quincy, Michigan. I remember about 5 years ago when I was helping my friend Hank Kohn work on his 41 Dodge fat body convertible phantom truck he was telling me a story about one of his crazy friends out east who was building a chopped top shortened school , I thought to myself hmmmmm, AWESOME!!!, wish I could see it someday !. Well, I had the suprise of my life when I pulled into treat myself to a cone and on the back of a trailer sat a chopped top school bus, could it be the same ?, NAH!,NO WAY!. As I sat there admiring the bus I noticed a very nice gentlemen and his wife wearing these colorful shirts w/ the bus on them. As I approached him he already knew what I was about to say and welcomed me into conversation, the third question I asked is what brings you to this Lil' town in Michigan, he replied that he just finished a show in Frankenmuth and just left from Jackson, Jackson ?, that's where I am from, what on earth are you doing in Jackson, Michigan ?. I was totally amazed when he told me he was visiting his friends Hank & Michelle Kohn, the same people who told me about this creation 5 years ago & I never dreamed I would ever see this vehicle in person. After this incident I am truly a believer that this is very very small world !. Thanks for producing such an awesome vehicle, it looks like many of us appreciate what you have created and I look forward to meeting you again ! Best Regards, Chad Seekell Jackson, Mich

I was pulling into my favorite Ice cream stand in Warrenton Va "The Carousel" and got more than just a frozen treat! WHAT A BAD BUS !! The atmosphere it created was powerful. Everyone loved it. I had heard of it stopping there before, it is truly amazing. I bought 2 shirts and wear them proudly. Thanks for a great evening, my kids haven't stopped talking about it. Keep Busing!

well i also pulled into that warrenton va. ice cream place on that sunday nite around 9pm . seems that i was full of myself in my new MINI Cooper S waxing nostalgic of the old days of cruising and parking the rig so it could be seen, at a gathering spot on a hot summer nite what better than the ice cream place with a big parking lot on a busy street in medium town america. My car was full, guys upfront gals in the back. I just knew i would be the hit car there. Right? WRONG....... Shortcuthigh was there in all its quirky glory......... how could i compete with that ? the neatest coolest vehicle on the road and YELLOW like yellow should be!!! I got out of my car and said : Whats that!!?? and heard an echo when they saw my car......... What fun!!!

WOW ! I was at DUKEFEST 02 in Speryville, Va. this past weekend. Now I know how Bo, Luke and Daisy got to school. They rode in the coolest bus ever . Great detail and workmanship. Who said frontwheel drive couldn't be fun ?

6:30 pm, August 25th. Warrenton, VA. I was sent by the ladies to go get some lettuce for Sunday dinner and diapers for the baby. At a light in town something caught my eye, Shortcut high at an ice cream carousel parking lot. An illegal lane change and a rolling right turn through a red light, after looking of course, and I was in the parking lot with it. I parked and grabbed my camera. Luckily I got a few shots off before it parked and before all the people started crowding around. I missed dinner of course and had to eat by myself but it was worth it. Very cool bus, thanks for making my trip to the grocery store more fun.

I spotted your cool bus in downtown St. Paul, MN parked near Rice Park . There was an afternoon event prior to the 'Back To The 50s'weekend held at the state fairgrounds. I formerly drove school bus, and it was great to see the transformation! An enjoyment, for sure. I missed the big weekend, but enjoyed the cars & your bus being downtown. Thanks for that 'extra' afternoon! Hope you come back to visit Minnesota again.

I was cruising through my sub-division in my hotrod, heading for a car show in Pigeon Forge,TN, when I spotted the baddest shortbus I have ever seen. It was sitting in a neighbors yard and I just had to stop and get pictures of it. This was the first time that I have seen it in Seymour,TN, but I hope that it will not be the last. Just keep the Shortbus CRUIZIN and I will be a happy man.

I spotted the Bus in Louisville, KY. It was definately one of my favorite sights. It was unreal. The designers did a wonderfull job!! This just goes to show what a little imagination and a whole lot of drive can do! Hope to catch the BUS again someday!!

Congrats folks!!!!! you've earned the buckeye of the day award,,,,, travelin the ohio turnpike usually Stinks, but on july 30 i was amased when i saw your ride west of toledo ,ohio headin west . hope ya-ll survived the only real rain storm we have had in 3 months. What ya'll have done is amazing, i couldn't wait to get home to show my wife & kids on your web site.

Shortcut High is one of the most impressive vehicles I've EVER seen... I think this is a COOL bus...and I think what it does is very cool, too. Encouraging kids to stay in school.

Hello, my name is Chris and I have a couple questions and comments for ya'll.
First of all, I have to give you some really high props for producing such a
magnificent machine. I never thought that I would see such a thing. The bus
has to be probably the most craziest and most wild automobile i have ever
seen. Anyways, now the question, I was wondering what type of engine and how
much HP are you producing? Ever since I saw the bus at the York Fairgrounds
this past May, I could not believe what I saw. Thanks for your cooperation.

Chris

I was pulling in to the Sheraton hotel where I work. I drove to the back parking lot and I slammed on the brakes right away. I was in a state of shock. I sat and stared at this mini low-rider bus that had a 2- 4 barrel carb. holly engine with a blower, bursting through the hood. It was side piped with wheely bars in the back. I knew right then and there that this bus had some serious power. I had never seen anything so outstanding in my life. I wasn't sure but by the sound of the engine, it sounded like it was equipped with a super charger. On be half of the Sheraton hotel I would just like to say that it was a pleasure having you stay with us and hope you consider it again.
Sincerely, Ron

I saw Shortcut High at the Summer Nationals in Worcester Ma. This is the
coolest thing I ever saw. I can only imagine the man hours involved. Have a
great summer CRUIZIN!!!

I was blown away the first time that I saw the bus as I was entering the York County fairgrounds, last month but to see it again was great. As I was going to work I saw something bright yellow sticking out from a trailer, on I-81 south, passing thru Augusta County, VA, I got in the passing lane to pass. About that time the traffic slowed down in a hurry, I thought there was a wreck ahead of me, until I found out that it was your school bus that every one was slowing down for. It is a real eye catcher and enough to stop traffic wherever it goes. Hope to see it again soon at a show or on the road. Paul, Virginia

One word AWESOME, I live in Mooresville,NC I was out riding around, stopped at this red light, going to make a left on hwy 150, and what did I see this lowered and chopped Ford school bus. I tell you, I was just amazed, never dreamed of it. I was able to see you stopped at master brakes I think it is, and so happened to have my digital camera and get a picture of it and now use it for my desktop. Thanks for making my day. Israel Grigg

Saw the short cut bus in Mooresville, NC. It was at Lancasters BBQ. Very
impressive!!!!

i was on the ny thruway commin back that sudnay from july 4th weekend and my friend and i were talkin about choppin the roof on his white chevy xtreme and like 20 minutes later we were about 10 car lenghts behind this trailer with a yellow "thing" on it and i said holy crap it looks like a chopped school bus, sure enough it was . u may remember me , i gave u the thumbs up

Great hello; As we were touring the town of Wilmont, Minnesota between a wedding and the reception I noticed a bus like vehicle on a trailer so had to check it out. When first seeing the bus from a distance I thought it was some type of carnival ride, but I was surprised as I got closer. I am a school bus driver, for Adrian, Mn, who likes to watch NHRA and other forms of racing, so when I approached the Bus it pleased me to see it transformed to a hot rod. Great job! Thank You for the veiw, Jim VanDerLinden.

Saw the bus this past weekend at Back to the 5o's. Very cool. I'm a
teacher and come from a family of teachers. Sister and 1 cousin currently
teach, Uncle just retired this year, my Mom and Dad are both retired
teachers, and Grandma taught in a one room school house in western Nebraska.
So our lives have always revolved around school. Thought the bus was the
coolest ride in all of the 10,400+ cars from the show in St. Paul.

Hello.. I was at Back to the 50's this year.... I must say, Your Bus had to have been the sweetest thing I have ever seen in my life.. Thank You for sharing your masterpiece with the rest of the world! I am a 16 year old girl.. and I know cars... And when I showed people the pictures of your Bus.. they were aww-struck.. and they loved it too.. I hope you come to Back 2 the 50's again next year as well. I will be excited to see it again with some of my friends! Thank You... Lindsey (Forest Lake, Minnesota)

I first saw your bus at the 12th Annual New England Summernationals in Worcester, Mass.. We got there on the 4th and at the show that day were talking about what a "pimped-out" school bus would look like. The next day, I was riding through the grounds with my friend and his uncle in the '56 Chevy pick-up that his uncle owns, and we saw the bus! I am 16 and my friend is 17 and we went NUTS! I took 5 pictures of it! My friend got it on video. We are from Old Town, Maine, and I have sent a total of 6 friends to your sight to check out pictures of the bus! Your bus is AWESOME! I'll never forget the day that I saw it! Thanks for the memories!

A friend and I were driving back from Gettysburg, PA on Saturday, June 1st
and spotted the bus in the parking lot of a 50's-style diner just outside of
York. We had to turn around and go back for a better look. Such an
outrageous concept and brilliantly executed - we both loved it. The
craftsmanship is absolutely outstanding - great job!! Wish we could have
seen it run. I'll definitely be looking for it at the Route 66 Rendezvous
in September.

Shortcut High was the most memorable vehicle for me at Hot August Nights this year in Reno, NV!! I saw you driving down the road and I was in awe. I took your picture; you waved. : ) Then I got a chance to take a closer look at Atlantis. You are too cool for school!!! I hope to see you again in the future. Regina Geremia Sacramento, CA

Awesome bus!!!! We spotted your bus at the Ocean City, MD Spring Fest . With all of the awesome street rods that we saw that weekend, Shortcut High was definitely the standout memory. My wife remarked that "she would have loved going to school if she could have ridden on your bus." Our boys, 6 & 3 years old, were speechless (which takes some doing). Thank you for sharing your dream with us! May you have many more miles of smiles :-)PS. We only had a chance to see your bus as we drove along side it on Costal Highway. I did see some of the interior on you web site, but would love to know some basics about the bus. i.e. about the engine, seating capacity, or any other interesting facts about the bus.

Hello im 15 and I love your bus i first seen it on cruise night TV and I just liked it ever since and I always wonted to do that to a bus or something no one has ever dune anything to but now i guess i have to find another project to do but I just wonted to say that your but is the PHATEST bus I have ever seen and that's a bus i would ride to school in LOL and one other thing I would like to see your bus at carshows in the Newcastle area.
Thank You

I've spotted the bus several other places before, but I recently seen it in OC. MD. No matter how many times I see this machine, I still want to get "another" look. I'll be watching for the bus at the York, PA show. You did a fabulous job with the bus!

OUTSTANDING! I'm glad you changed the name. There are too many lowlifes in high schools now. I especially enjoyed the pictures of your custom next to a full sized school bus. Whats all that white fog coming out of it?

Hi, we were recently in Wildwood, NJ. We saw the shortcut bus in the burnout contest and riding on the road afterward. We think its great that you made the bus look so cool. I wish all school busses looked like that. Even the ones that take me to school. I wouldn't mind getting a ride and going to school then. Your vehicle was the one that caught my eye the most. Thanks for making our stay in Wildwood memorable.

My three boys and I saw Shortcuthigh at Ocean City MD Cruising show and had to check out the website. Both were great. This was our first car show and we had a fantastic time. My boys got home and when mon asked them about their day they immediately had to tell her about your Shortcut High bus. Great job. I think I may have found a new hobby ,, Car shows and one day having my own Project Car.

I wanted to drop you a line to tell you that you and yor friends did a wonderful job on the school bus. It really catches the eye of the young and old. My husband and I just went to Ocean City and came home bragging about it to our sons. I rememered the web site and thought I would send you a compliment on the bus.

Hello, I recently saw your school bus in Salisbury MD and I thought the idea was spectacular! Every detail and design is amazing! My little girls eyes just brightened right up when she saw your bus, not alone her daddy's eyes! Maybe one day you will be able to ride in our community. Keep up the good work. Youv'e created a wonderful masterpiece.

Hello! My name is Marti Scholl - and I have only sighted your van on the
web. Recently, I received the Children's Inn News and saw the wonderful
article about your traveling bus. I had to investigate and found it amazing!
I wanted to say thank you for using such an eye-catching vehicle to help
support our Inn. My son Brian lost his battle with HIV-AIDS two years ago.
We spent /lived many months and most summers at the Children's Inn between
1993 and 1998. I can't tell you what a wonderful place this was for us. Our
son faught a courageous battle - and his life was definately extended with
good quality time - due the treatment he received at the NIH. Being able to
live at the Children's Inn during this time of our lives gave our family the
continuity needed to live normally. Not only is the Inn a special place for
children, it is a life-saving establishment for families. Brian had many
wonderful experiences while living in Bethesda. We all made friends that
will last a lifetime. Your caring is a very generous gift to all. Thank you.

Shortcut High is a Treasure to a Blackbeard , a Feast to Henry the 8th, and a
Masterpiece to Rembrant himself ! How could you not fall in love with this
monument of kindness ? Spotted in York at the Street Rod Nationals East,
Jerry and Brenda in LoLife High have sent my spirts soaring. Who ever said
all HotRods have to be Red never got good school'in.
Long Live Odd Rods !!! Packard Deb, Virginia

I was at the "Back To Fifties" day in
St. Paul, and your vehicle definitely
upstaged everything else there. I
logged on to your site and loved the
story of how you built it from an
old, abandoned bus. Best regards,

My son Sid recently going through Kentucky, he thinks that he was in
Kentucky, he was riding with a friend. He saw your bus at a truckstop and was
blown away. Of course he brought his father back the T-shirt and we had to
check out the web site. Of the entire trip that he took, your bus was what he
enjoyed the most. Keep up the great work, and we hope to see it in North
Carolina one day

{{hello, i've just spent that last 20 minuets or so admiring your website, your "shortcut high" school bus puts me in awe. it is amazing to see such an awesome street machine such as your bus. just seeing it definately dropped my jaw. also you are doing this for a great cause, the childrens inn. but one thing i found a little upsetting about your website and your bus ride across america to let people know about the childrens inn. well you are not coming anywhere in the northeast. why is that? is it because we dont have many car shows or whats the reason, there are thousands and thousands of admiring people that im sure would love to see your amazing machine in person, i know i would and i know a whole lot of other people that would to. please write me back on any northeast tour info you may have in the works or what not. thank you for your time. Manchester, Ct.

I saw you in Spearfish, South Dakota. What an awsome bus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your Bus is just incredible... My son was amazed at it and when we got
home, he had to see your web site. He goes to extra-curicular classes
during summer and cant wait to show off the little card about the bus.
This was his first real car show and your bus has made a lasting
impression on him.. Thank you for having the vision to complete such a
wonderful task.. Your bus is truely a labor of love and im glad you have
a following to put piece of mind that your project was worth it..
sincerely... Mark and Alexander Daily..... Sylvan Beach NY

I have been going to "Back to the 50's" in St Paul, MN for 3 years now and\line everytime that I go I seem to find something more interesting than the year\line before. This year was no different , but what I saw there was beyound belief. If someone would have told me that there would be a streetrodded school bus there I would not have believed them. That was until I saw the bus for myself. The bus is a work of art, Great job !!! Taking a piece of American history and turning it into some totally ubelievable. I hope that more people can get the enjoyment of seeing this school bus as I did. I plan to wear my t-shirt that I purchased often. Thanks for sharing it with us in the Midwest. Belinda (WI)

YOUR BUS IS ONE OF THE WILDEST RIDES I HAVE EVER SEEN.. I`VE BEEN BUILDING STREET MACHINES FOREVER AND CAN DEEPLY APPRECIATE EVERY SQUARE INCH OF IT..CONGRATS ON A JOB WELL DONE!!..I`VE ALWAYS WANTED TO BUILD SOMETHING DIFFERENT MYSELF..I REALLY THINK YOU STOLE THE SHOW..."KEEP ON BUSIN"....

We were dropping by our old friend Roy Brizio before going back to Norway after the Pebble Beach Concours , and the party was on. There it was, among all the nice looking Hot Rods, the Hottest thing around! Your "bus" is a winner!

We spotted this vehicle in Wildwood, NJ. I wanted to get the email address off the side, but by the time we got home, I had forgotten it. Thank God for Kodak! Thank you for doing something different. Everyone tries to make their vehicle as unique as possible, but you topped the cake. I hope to see you next year in Wildwood!!!!

to the shortcut high gang-saw you at the wildwood show, wow and very nice job!! --i've been goin to that show almost from the beginning and there has been a lot of great Kustoms there - but lately its been just 60's chevy classics and late model Mustangs but every now and then a good artist comes along with a great idea. that bus would even make G. Barris jealous. and a front drive caddy engine ,wow , you just opened the door to my mind for some new ideas.------please let us know ,on your web site, where your going to be in 2001 (macungie or lead east maybe?) and god willing I hope to see you next year at wildwood!

We were heading back to West Virginia after an antique show near Pittsburgh, PA and were on I-79 going through a construction site that merged the traffic into one lane and were right behind the Low-Life High bus hauler. It took us the longest time to determine just what it was from behind. We could tell the color was that of a school-bus but knew it didn't look like what normally rolled off the Thomas-Built assembly line!! When the lanes parted again, we passed to get a better look. Very interesting! We thought maybe it was a circus prop, and maybe thirty clowns were going to climb out!
