When the Ontario bus was priced at $8500 it was worth thinking about. Since then he's raised the price to 14,500. No thanks.... I'll find a real one for that. I actually had a pending deal on a 13 window but the seller decided to keep it. It'll happen but now I'm thinking I'll keep it on the back burner till spring. If the right one comes up I'll jump but till then I'll keep looking! Keep me in mind though and Thanks guys/gals. Oh...yeah. Now I see that the price has jumped..Well best of luck!! ...you know...you could ask him why he raised it.. You just may get it cheap.... Anyway, I'm here if you need my help

Thanks for the offer. The search goes on... quietly but it goes on.

The guy in Ontario with the fake 15 window is on glue now. He just raised the price to 10500 POUNDS. All he did was add a canadiana camper interior. Just what anyone wanting a 15 window is looking for. The Itch is getting bad now.... I need a bus to drive next year and I still haven't found a worthy candidate. AAAAGGGHHHHHH!!!!

He bought a partial crusty Canadiana camper int. from me. He told me that he wanted to duplicate the interior. If I wanted the bus, I'd offer him 5k without the camper interior. oh and let him know it needs to be able to be driven home.. ;D

Have you seen it in person? With that color combo and it still needing work on the nose and passenger door area I'm curious how badly the bodywork was done on the rest. He finally responded to my email stating that it would be 1 of 2 existing Canadiana's in the world. Who buys a 15 window wanting a camper? Looking at the pictures he has up on the link in his add it appears that he's screwed the interior in all over the place making it a completely wooden 15 window interior. Thanks for your input.

Cripes man, he's not getting any interest at $10k or $14k so he's now asking the equivilent of $22,000 CDN. Plus it sounds like he believes that a hacked panel with a reproduction Canadiana interior makes it a real Canadiana? I think you need to stay away from this one, sounds like someone is a little unbalanced.

Interesting that he is having troubles getting the passenger door to fit. I sold him that door and it was rust free, dent free. It would fit on an untweaked bus very nicely I think. Sounds like a run, don't walk away from that one.
The 15 Window Mafia has not forgotten about you. We recently agreed that you could strike for the clan. No promises, but strikers can't properly uphold their obligations to the clan without a hard top de Luxe from which to operate out of. We will be in touch shortly.

That's what I figured, especially seeing as I can see he's gotten parts from all over and nothing seems to fit. Thanks Guys for the information. Now tell me about the 15 window mafia. Let me guess, you'd tell me but then you'd have to kill me?

That would be the door he replaced with the correct one he got from me. I gave him a good deal on it too - fellow canuck and all.
