WISHING....

hello we are new here and glad to finally be a part of this community. we do not have a bus yet..but that is what we are hoping to accomplish here.
We are looking for a school bus that is a flat nose diesel (international preferred) with a cummins engine and allison trans, it can not be longer than 25' because that will sadly not work for what we have planned (sounds strange huh ud think we would want more room hahaha nooooope)
our budget for a bus that has not been converted at all would be $4000.00 or less.

BUT, just so you all know this is just our "ideal" bus we would love to hear about any busses for sale that you know of. Please work your magic!! Together we can make dreams come true!!

Re: WISHING....

So are you going to travel anywhere for this bus or do you have a geographical location?

Re: WISHING....

well, we are currently in california and would prefer a bus as close to that as possible. But...depending on the bus we would be willing to travel to pretty much anywhere. as long as its in the country....

Re: WISHING....

yea i am constantly watching ebay. the right thing just has not popped up. Yeah being in Cali it is hard to find a bus somewhere close but I found a website called truckpaper.com, I just looked up used school bus and it is a great site in my opinion. I found a lot of buses closer to what I am looking for and for decent prices. Well, I am begining to ramble so I think I should get back on the hunt....
