Wife and I just purchased our 1995 Int!
We scored a 1995 International with 81,000 miles on it, new tires, and it came with two RV A/C's on top (still haven't checked if they work) for $5,000!

Currently seeing who all in my network wants to buy bus seats and doing lots of research.

Sounds like you are already on your way! What are the plans for your newly acquired big bus? Full time? Part time? Toy haul? Insane double-decker build with jacuzzi on roof????

Full-time living domicile. Hoping to get it up to Oregon and hop along the coast getting seasonal outdoor education jobs. The wife wants to paint it sage green (I'm inclined to agree) and put a nice porch on the back maybe (it is very long.)

That thing goes on for miles ! I want to join that Church- sounds like a hoot!

I ALMOST went sage green route ! It really makes a ginormous vehicle less noticeable.

My buddy just moved up to Oregon near Bend. Says he loves it.

The people we bought it from kinda passed the buck on us and we had to pay an extra $150 in taxes as they had bought it in March and hadn't gotten the title over to them (but the lady had dated the title transfer )

Definitely not too mad though as this beauty is coming home tomorrow thanks to our friend with a CDL.
