This bus has had so much work done to it and a lot of great parts put into it. So good luck!!!!!! The story behind this bus. I built this bus 10 years ago. I grafted the ragtop and the corner windows. I used it in its unfinished state and drove it as daily driver for 6 years. I took it to shows and drove it occasionally,but mostly it stayed in my garage. I sold this truck to a friend in 2011, but because I built the truck and know what's in it, I am helping him sell it here on Ebay. Its has a clear Az title.
