What in the world is that?  In the first shot (top) it appears to be a Buffalo, but on the bottom shot it has morphed into a completely different color and has a tag axle.

Huh?

I don't care WHAT it is - I WANT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D But ahhh, to dream.........
It looks like 2 differnt bus's. I'd take either one! Man I like them!!!!
And even tho I "got a little excited" looking at them, and could never afford them, I didn't see a price. That us usually settles me down a bit.  :D :D

All the photos are of the same bus.

It is a scenic that has had the upper windshields moved forward. I've seen a couple done this way & I don't care for it at all. YUCK! Ruins the lines & what is the point in putting up with all the other difficulties in converting a scenic if you loose the classic lines?

To each their own, I suppose. . . .

Okay, now that makes sense (windshields moved forward) after going back and looking closely at the photo's I can see what you are talking about.  I concur, it ruins the looks of the coach.

 Looks like the same bus to me the paint lines and body panels match up in the 2 exterior pictures. I usually do not like it when the original exterior panels are changed on the earlier buses but for some reason I kind of like this one... I think.

At that price, it ain't for sale - he is just trying to show off.

The problem will be to find a fool with that much money.  ::)

He doesn't need 3 buses the guy own everything from Elmiar Id down to Sandpoint Id Lol knowing what I heard about him he probably is asking the hi price so he can donate it to some place and take the asking price off his taxes


good luck

There is a group up in MI (I think) that does this "conversion" to them last I heard they have built 5 of these like this all the same color too!

Maybe Mike (HTR) can shed some light on them. I remember they've had at least one of them worked on @ the Choo-Choo garage b4!
;D  BK  ;D

To take that much as a tax deduction for that bus & not get audited would surely require a fool in the gubbermint.

Sounds like a save bet to me.  :o ::)  :P

All depends on your past deductions and the money bracket you will be amazed with what you can get away with lol ;D
