Rust doesn't look too bad at all for a Jersey bus. Certainly pretty on the outside. Transmission probably a 545. Low ceiling. Not bad at all for $1700.

Would 10239 hours be high for a bus with only 149k miles on it?

I went and looked at some NJ buses a while back. They looked great in the pictures but when I got there I found myself looking at buses that I wouldn't take if they were free.

Be vigilant in your inspection looking for rust.
