The new owners of CSS-476,, A 1960 PD 4104 that starred in both Shawshank Redemption and Selma.
Are looking for a shop in the Montgomery, Alabama area that can work on their coach. Anyone out there have an idea of where to refer them to?

Thanks to everyone for your emails.
I forwarded the information to the new owners, the National Center for the Study of Civil Rights and African-American Culture at Alabama State University in Montgomery, AL.

Hey Jon
Do you ever get sale price info on these transactions? As a seated 04 owner I would love to know what that bus sold for. I keep close tabs on all 4501 prices, as people often ask what things are worth. In my opinion, recent sale prices are at least somewhere to start with for a value. Or maybe I'll cry, as I missed a smoking deal! Feel free to PM me if you prefer not to discuss on line. Take care

Tom,
Sometimes people will share the price they pay in their bus transactions. I have seen buses go for unique amounts. Anything fromun free to 25k. I will inquire how much the bus went for and see if I get a response. I do know that there were atleast 2 different people that wanted that coach. The non-winner went and bought a seated coach that will be painted in Greyhound colors. Seems the movie Shawshank Redemption was filmed in his town. He already bought the Ford bus from the opening credits.
I filled the University's email box with enough bus stuff to help them with any endeavor.
National Bus Trader Magazine has a price list in the back every quarter. It gives the going price for seated coaches including 4104's.
