I have a suspicion with all the rain in LA this week there's more than one reason why that bus is free....... Just a hunch.........

I contacted them but as of right now, have not had a reply.

Looking at the pic I would assume it is in pretty rough condition.

IDK man, from the pic it looks like ANY bus. I've seen many a noob post with buses like this one. Usually asking if $4000 was a good deal.

Free buses are out there.
My first bus, a Thomas gasser, was FREE for the taking. It even ran. The guy I ended up selling it to put thousands of miles on it.
These things used to be mostly free.

Yeah, but what that picture doesn't include is the 7 feet of water that the bus is currently under...

New Orleans got away with basically no rain. It was over here in Lafayette and Baton Rouge that got hit hard. The rains were localized over a very small area (kind of weird really)
