1986 Chevy Blue Bird, gas 16/22 pax low miles Canada- $6500

First off she's our beauty so must go to a loving home.


1986 Chevy van 30 Blue Bird, gas 16/22 pax 195,000 km or 120,000 miles
- $6500 Canadian

Our 'Little 16" gets government safety inspected every season before we put her on the road. Driven summer only, no rust. Chev v8 350 ( i think) gas motor, 195,000 kilometers (120,000 miles) automatic trani, manual windows and doors, natural AC (open the windows) , front and rear heaters. Seats 16 adults or 22 kids. we've had her @15 years, No accidents (couple of bumper scrapes see door below). recent new trani, starter, battery, 4 core rad, brakes all around are good, seat covers are good (some pics show old covers), rear leaf springs, great tires all around,
The pots of ezy dry on the floor are to keep the moisture down while it is in winter storage

re door, the passenger entry door tripped on a tree root last summer. it opens and closes still but either needs a new one or some body work. The hinges are fine just the door panel, we've not put any effort into this repair yet. We just got busy with winter. Yes we have the glass and rubber seals.

hmmm what else, we bought it from a 1st nations group with 58,000 km on it. Installed the roof rack and used it for our adventure company. Now we've bought an airport shuttle bus that holds more people so our '16' is ready to go to a new home.

It's in winter storage up on a friends farm and as of Feb 2 has 3 feet of snow around it (yes we've been shoveling off the roof). the pics show a 20' Makenzie canoe on top which we'd sell as well if you want. We'd think the snow will be gone by late March. Yes you could hire a plow to get it our earlier if you want. We're posting now so you have a chance to figure out if it's right for you and if so great.


We have all kinds of records will have to get them from our shop. like we said above, government safety certified every spring.

We live in Whistler BC Canada

We're not finding any other buses like this out on the market so far so not sure what fair market value is. We Sold our 24 seater last year for a similar price as what we asking so that's where we got our price. suggestions are welcome.

For you techy people reading this, how do we tell what motor it has? Pretty sure it's a 4 barrel carb

Ask any questions you may have. We have a bunch more pics ask for what you'd like. cheers

so I got a message that a brand new passenger door costs $500 Canadian. I"ve not looked further into this to find used or how much to fix.'
