Matchbox is gonna make a model of the bus I drive!

MAN# Description USA# LAAM# ROW# Serial #

MB 662 City Bus - red & lt. gray "Everett Transit" U 050 R 050 M5329

Here's a picture I took of myself in the reflection of the bus next to me :)



Now you can say you know one of the 70 drivers of that bus if you ever have it in your collection.

It kinda reminds me of The Untouchables -- that one scene where Elliott Ness asks the cop why he just took his word that he was a Treasury agent, and the cop (Sean Connery) says, "Who would claim to be that, who was not?"

:D

As opposed to 'generic' bus?
