Any thoughts on this bugger?

I sent off an email asking about engine and tranny type as well as if there is rust or mold.

Curious if something like this would pull a small trailer.

I have read that some of the shorties/ cutaways already put a lot of strain on brakes, engine and transmission with out all the added weight of the build

Do you have a vin number? I'm not the most knowledgeable but I think they need more info before knowing about towing. Unless that bus had a common build

At that price? The seller is dreaming. Looks like about a $1500 bus to me.

Shootz, I have not thought that far ahead really. I suppose I will have to make it my own where and when I can.

Fair enough. Care to elaborate?

Looks dirty, looks like its seen better days. Buses like that sell at auction for like $400-$2000 on a really good day.
$4500 will get you a REALLY nice bus.

I have been looking on Craigslist in OR and CA mostly and have not seen anything cheaper than this so far. The low mileage on this one looked appealing despite being a bit beat up.

I am not familiar with auctions and how they work when it comes to inspection or if there is one close to me. Flying across the country only to be disappointed and coming back empty handed is not in my budget.

I was however going to start looking into near by school districts once I get situated at my next stop.

Thanks for your thoughts!

IDK what it will end up selling for, but this looks to be a hell of nice mini bus-
