Vehicle Detail
This is a great vehicle for someone with knowledge and time on their hands for a restoration. I recently drove her from Providence, RI to Rocky Mount, NC where the present engine gave out (and is still located.) This vehicle can presently be driven so long as someone has the touch and some patience as she does not do well idling (it doesn't take too long to acquire the touch.) The main issue deals with the manifold. Someone who is not handy will likely have to replace the engine. Someone with more knowledge might be able to fix this themselves. This bus has new brakes and was doing just great before the aforementioned issue (the fan belt broke and the generator burned.) The buyer has a great opportunity to restore the interior cosmetically to really increase the value. The odometer only has five digits so the exact mileage is not known, but somewhere around 190,000 or 290,000 is not out of the question. Feel free to call me at 312.371.0083 if you would like to know more.
