My M1031 has the same engine, OUTSTANDING engine. Well engineered and very durable. It's not meant to be a drag racer engine, but plenty of torque when it counts. Also decent fuel economy, and parts are CHEAP!!!!

I thought you said you bid because no one else did. Your bid was the 14th bid. I was wondering why you bid so much if no one else did.

Why don't sellers post a picture of "the bus"?

He's bidding against several other bidders.

If I lived west of the Rockies, I would seriously look at that bus. It's got cool factor!

And you couldn't make that up from salvage. He's delusional if he thinks anyone will "make a reasonable offer to discuss". Seriously, he would have to pay me to even think about removing it from his property.

Good idea.
Me, I just PM all the usual suspects and hope the newbs and lurkers don't notice it themselves.
But good luck man, looks like a nice one!

Generally speaking we've found that it's not good to provide an actual link to a bus sale. Just list the information and photos here.

something like that is an easy call or email to the seller. and ask if its running and any mechanical failures.. and can they include all 6 wheels with tires.. you usually get a feel for the seller's honesty pretty quickly.

How much of a pain would the emissions stuff be to deal with on an engine that year?
