Howdy Folks

My name is Patrick Young, I live in Fresno. I've been doing buses for the last 15 years, and have dismantled 14 (11 Gilligs, one Crown and two Fords) I have lots of experience in machinery in general, and diesel stuff. I have about 22 buses right now, about 15 run and eight are for parts
I sell my stuff cheap. I just use the money to fund my non profit work in Haiit, Mexico, and Central America, and I started collecting and dismantling buses just to send them as spares for the donated bus, and to keep mine running, then sorta got carried away. I can't resist buying stuff,I have about ten generators and just keep on buying 'em. Love 'em I do, .....or anything that runs and makes noise,it's all iinteresting to this child like mind.....

Ok just drop me a line. and have a good day enjoying the springtime

    I just found this site and posting. I have a 74 Gillig with a 3208 Cat engine that I have converted Green Tortoise style to run trips with friends. I've been living in it for a year and a few months. I am looking for spare parts for a run down to Baja this spring.
