Went to Richie's auction today. It is only 15 min drive from my house. But didn't even make it inside, my son decided he wanted a nap...

I love that lil blue bus! Its got the chassis and front end of those classic chevy vans I love so much.
We all hated to see you go, but you had your little one with you so it was understood. You're just SUCH NICE people!

ANyhow most BM attendees have LOTS of money. Look how much it costs just to go!
Same $400 I spent on MS150

[QUOTE=ourmefa;185221]I have been digging around on the Richie Brothers site. I am surprised by the number of buses they have, and I have found a few that look interesting.

I almost forgot about that site THANKS

The pictures made it look better than it was. Part of what kept the price down was the fact it had an 8V-71 engine and stick shift--not exactly a preferred power package.

West coast peeps, public surplus has a bunch of WA busses listed today. Looks like most have either the 3060 (they list them as world trans) trans or the 643
Some re and some fe.
