I HAVE OWNED THIS BUS SINCE 2000. IT SEEMS TO BE IN GOOD MECHANICAL CONDITION, XCEPT FOR THE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OF A 43 YEARS OLD VEHICLE. PREVIOUS OWNERS MADE MODIFICATIONS TO THE ORIGINAL CARBURATION AND A/C ELIMINATION. THIS VEHICLE IS A VERY GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A FULL RESTORATION BY AKNOWLEDGEABLEPERSON. I MAY BE THE THIRD OWNER. IT HAS ALMOST NO RUST!THINGS TO BE DONE IN MY OPINION:FULL PAINT JOBEXHAUST PIPETUNE-UPELECTRIC CONNECTIONSWIPER REPAIRBRAKE SYSTEM CHECKI DROVE IT FROM WISCONSIN TO TEXAS THREE YEARS AGO AFTER SITTING IDLE FOR SEVERAL YEARS WITH NO MAJOR PROBLEMS. THE 55,000+ MILES SEEM TO BE ORIGINAL MILES. I DROVE IT FOR ABOUT 3500 MILES IN TOTAL.I THINK THIS IS A FAIR PRICE FOR THIS VEHICLE.
