Re: Opinions about Wayne bus??? Oldtimers expertise NEEDED!

I always thought the Lifestars were cool. The only complaint I have about my Wayne is that some of my windows just don't want to stay all the way up, but I think that's true of many makes. I know the chases for the wiring were awesome. With a DT466 and an MT643 it should be a good highway cruiser. Check out the axle gears. Post some pictures so we can all look and then offer him $4000 for it. You can always give him more, but now as much as ever the used bus market is soft and scrap prices have collapsed so there isn't even that to bank on anymore.

I don't think that the rust looks all that bad at all, but maybe that's just a geographical thing. I certainly would do more looking into it before I bought it. That's a big chunk of change. But...the bus does offer a lot like Smitty pointed out. The tires are a killer though. 6 tires at $250 a piece adds $1500 to the price...
