Well, I finished the new stuff for the website. Go ahead and visit. I added a picture I took near the end of last month of a new 2004 Saf-T-liner EF. I'm sure I'll be adding more stuff. Don't forget to sign my guestbook!!

Nice update George! I particularly like the Thomas EF and the retired Blue Bird All American FE.
Just one nitpick though, and it may just be the browser here at work, but some of the letters don't contarst well with the pictures on the home page. But like I said it could just be my work computer. Other than that, great job!

I re did the text on the first page of my site, and I think that should fix the problem. Thank you GMCBluebird83 and everyone for the great comments about my site!! I also added a few polls too while I changed the color of the font.

Great update George! I do have a question about the interior shot of the AAFE... Did you verify that was a Doran monitor on that bus? I would be interested in finding out because I recently recieved some great photos, and one was an AAFE with the same monitor. If you look at it, it isn't the same as a present Doran monitor because the back lower "window" of the "bus" isn't solid black, just an outline. It looks like the "windsheild" is also different. The true ELMO's of the time were made by Doran but were simply black with a white outline of the bus and actualyl said ELMO on them. Doran I think switched to the present solid yellow and black background design of today around '88. Perhaps the monitor on that All American was an optional transition?

I was just looking through your site, and came accross "School Buses I maded" under "My Buses" you might want to change that.

Thanks for telling me Chris. It's fixed. It must have pushed the extra "d" by accident, lol.

Yup, it's a Doran. Sorry it took so long to respond; I wanted to triple check.
Thank you all for the great comments!!
