Cons
There are some mechanical issues with the brakes. They seem to be partly stuck?
The bus will move but not very well with this brakes issue so it will likely need to be towed out.

Looks like a BlueBird flatnose, but would be helpful to know some more specifics:

Chassis manufacturer / series
(ex. Chevy C60, Ford B700, International S1800)

Which diesel engine
(ex. Detroit 8.2, Navistar 6.9, etc.)

Which automatic trans
(ex. Allison AT545, Allison MT643)

Coachwork manufacturer
(ex. Blue Bird, Thomas, Carpenter, Ward)

Length, or alternately, window count per side or passenger capacity

(ex. 28 ft / 30 ft / 35 ft / 48 passenger)
(ex. 6-window, 8-window)
(ex. 28 passenger, 48 passenger, 64 passenger)

The coachwork manufacturer's body tag can help with some of this. Thomas should be a red tag on the ceiling over the driver's window, Blue Bird is usually located on the inside above the right windshield. Perhaps Carpenter / Ward owners can chime in as to where theirs are in the absence of the aforementioned.

Sorry if I sound like a jerk, not trying to be a pain, really. But things get pretty specific here, and not all buses are created equal. Helps to know what you're dealing with... BTW, pics indicate some nice work on the inside, but it's hard to tell with them sideways.
