About 300 miles from me. In serious lust, but nowhere to store/work on it and probably not the mad skills to bring it back to life. e-bay linkage

I purchased this Motorhome bus in December, I do not know to much about it. The body is in Good condition and the interior also is in good condition. I have not started the motor, I think the motor is a Buick Engine. This bus is a good project to restore and save the great looks of this Vintage Bus. Serious buyers only can call me at 559 273-4701

First, a tour around the outside.

And now to the inside.

those plates were issued between 1963-1969. The green year sticker tab could be either '71, '78, '84, 'or 1990. It looks the wrong shade of green but 1996 & 2002 were also a green color..

go for it..maybe the current storage fees are reasonable..

mark i can see why , i would like to get a fxble, i have never seen one on this side of the country, i seen pics of them on the west coast and seems like the prices are not to bad, if i were to find one it would have to be one that would need work, thats all i can afford . the shipping would be to high for me to get her here, but i have an idea you can buy it and keep it here . i promis to exercice her for you.

I guess if you couldn't find a place to park, you just drive out into the lake and drop anchor!
