Vehicle history....
It was a standard yellow passenger school bus with no AC for the first half of its life. Millbrook school purchased it, added the under belly storage and AC units as well as upgraded seating and turned it into a school activity bus for some sports teams. I have had it now for two and a half years and I was working on it pretty hard at first. Then life happened, I bought a pop up camper and when I have free time to work on the bus I either camp, or float down the river, or work on a number of my other projects. It's time to let it go to someone who will appreciate it and finish it.

Send me a PM for more information or to schedule a time to see it. I'm new to this but will check a few times throughout the day.

Thanks for looking.

Honestly, even though it's a hot bus market, I think you'll have a little trouble selling a bus with an AT545, even though it's not a "bad" transmission really. It's a really nice bus, if I didn't have one already I'd be interested, but I think your price may be a bit high - but that depends on how much you want/need to sell it and what you paid for it originally so I can respect your choice.

I'm not sure the buy/sell activity is very high in this group, you might need to try the Facebook groups as well to get more exposure.

$5k for the bus alone.

anyone reading this far I'd be willing to take $5k for the bus alone. I can find other homes for the other items.

Or if anyone is interested in just the new in box appliances or the 8x16 roof deck frame, or the insulation, or pex and subfloor radiant heat panels I can part with those individually as well.

No problem. Buying a bus is almost always hindsight 20/20, knowing what I know now I definitely would have preferred a rear engine bus for overall on the road comfort, and the Cummins 5.9 is a great, very common engine that's easy to find people to work on. You should have found me this time last year

That bus looks so sad. Someone needs to buy it and turn its frown upside down!
