Mysterious Hole Patched

At some point in the bus’s history a previous owner cut a hole behind the back seat row. This was probably done to bring in warm air to make up for a poorly maintained heating system. The hole was cut on an un-ribbed section of floor, making for a fairly simple patch. Prior to this repair the gas tank was taken out to avoid any fiery surprises.
