Finally Won An Auction!
Hello Everybody!
Thank you to everyone that has contributed knowledge to this site/forum.
It's because of all those posts and conversations on here I was able to confidently bid on the perfect bus for me... and today I won the auction for that bus!
It's a 2004 Blue Bird All American with a 3126 and MD3060. It has 164,000 miles and was used as a reserve highway bus for the school district. They sold it to fulfill the terms of a grant. (Must sell a working bus...not parts or broken bus.)
This checks all the boxes and then some.
Rust-free public school district (even better this one is local)
3126 or DT466 & Pusher
MD3060
Pass through storage
6'2ish of headroom
40 ft
Side door
Working A/C
Tires... the tires are in great shape! (I budgeted for new tires!)
Batteries... (Also budgeted for this as well, but they are new)
2003 or older (This is close enough it's a 2004 but still it doesn't have the C-7... I know I didn't want anything newer than 2007 for sure).
Please let me know any suggestions you may have. I've been reading this forum and watching tons of YouTube conversion videos for a couple of years now. However, I know I'm about to find out firsthand.
I know the first thing is to get paperwork sent off to Vermont any other suggestions?
Thank you!
