1992 Bluebird in Portland, OR

Got this bus about a year ago, but have since realized it's a bigger project than I can take on right now (I'm a student and single mom). Bit sad to let it go, but need to be realistic. Got as far as pulling out all the seats. Blank slate, ready to go.

1992
Bluebird
Diesel
Need to double-check length, it's not a short bus, but not quite full-size.
Runs fine- it sat for a while over the winter, but we've moved it/run it several times since then without any problems. Haven't had to take it on the highway, though, so I can't say for certain how it would do at higher speeds.
Tags are currently expired and bus is not currently insured. Unfortunately, staying current on those things has not been something I've been able to afford of late due to unforeseen circumstances.

More pictures of interior/engine coming soon.

I'm thinking $5,000 OBO

That looks identical to my '97 TC1000. Nice choice. To bad you're not finishing it.

That would be the Cummins 5.9 and likely an Allison 545. An adequate combo. The length is likely 26' long. This bus also very likely has a completely flat floor, indicated by the lift.

Talking How many miles on your bus?

It looks to be 27' which is a good size for me and my two kitties. Yes, I am interested - am in PA but am heading out west next month. This is my first time replying, but I did enable getting replies from members.

Otterbeast!

Aye man! I realize it’s been a few since you posted this bud for sale but, do you by chance still have it? Do you know where one like it might be that is for sale? Just shooting wildly in the dark here, don’t mind my tardiness to the party…

Otterbeast, again

I left a message as a reply in the thread and am not sure which is the best way to get at you directly. Is this bud still around or am I a half a decade too late?

Yep. OP has not posted in 5 years. Somebody posted a classified for a similar flat-nosed shorty just yesterday, though:
