Title: I moved to slow.........
Post by: josephgranzier on August 01, 2009, 05:44:40 AM
Fellas - I've been on the sidelines for a while ,looking ,reading and waiting for the right bus ......and there it was
http://gm4106bus.com/ (http://gm4106bus.com/)
I spoke with the owner twice , spoke with the mechanic ,scheduled the "survey " , tentatively planned for mid August trip to phoenix to complete the deal and ............. moved to slow .
One of our fellow bus nuts beat me to it.
Some one from Pennsylvania ?

Still looking - We like that 35' version -updated w/ auto trans , well kept - not so much in the market for a project bus .
Keep me in mind if anyone comes across something
Thanks in advance

Keep your eyes on Craigslist.  Over the next several months, the market will slump again, prices drop and a lot of coaches for sale.  Probably one better and closer.

That's one of the cool things about this -- another bus will be along in a little while!

Really nice older coaches are very rare.  You need to have a sack of $100's ready, and jump on the good one.

I feel your pain.  Spend time learning what you like and want.  So the next time you see one you will grab your hat and notebook of questions to ask.  It took me 12 years to find the second good buy.
