Whoops...bought 2...

Saw there was a local bus auction, always wanted a 12 valve bus, accidentally bought 2.
Both are 98's, 12 valve 5.9 ISB cummins. I really enjoy the 5.9 motor, my past 3 trucks have had that and I've owned some newer cummins as well. Easy to get big power out of it, easy to work on, rebuild, etc. Easier then the detroits I've owned...



I'll swap a locking trans in after we convert and get some time in. Just wanted to share my stupidity!

For a second there I thought you said "I suppose you could pick one up and flip it?"

That's a man who eats his wheaties with coffee instead of milk.
