Here in Montreal I had good luck talking with the guys at the bus repair yard for the city buses.  They let me know of a few places (plus there are some retired guys restoring old city buses that have access to who knows what in old warehouses...shhh...)  I suggest this as you have an RTS and if Raleigh or wherever runs (or ran) this type the repair guys will know how to find out where the scrap ones are (probably sittin in a lot out back).  Good Luck.

Pete....

Just as an update, it's not Dean's Coach anymore.

I think it's now called Carolina Coach in Durham, NC 919.838.4780

Their website was taken down awhile back and hasn't been replaced with anything.

Yes the bone yard at Carolina Coach or Dean"s Coach  is gone. There is one in Fayetteville NC. I don't have the address I might make a trip there in middle of march. I'm 20 miles south west of Charlotte  and that's all I know of.
