Relative cost of repairs/ steering box

[Craig Schwartz]

Thanks for your comments - I'll reply to all of them here:

The mechanic friend is posing a general question to assess repair
costs. He has little or no direct experience with BB's (his
love is ambulances) and so does not really understand their
original quality.

Although I have not yet driven the coach (the road test will
need to be postponed a week or so), I'm confident that
it is mechanically fine, due to the efforts of a prior owner.

His concern was for the general issue of getting parts for
older vehicles. I'm relieved to read that it's not such
a problem for an older 'bird.
