Title: PDM 4905 Auction
Post by: peterbylt on October 05, 2017, 12:42:44 PM
This one looks pretty good, if does not get bid up to high.

If I were looking this would be under serious consideration.

Per the VIN posted in the ad (P8M4905A-312), this bus was delivered new in March of 1973 as fleet number O-510 to Oklahoma Transportation Company, HQ'd in Oklahoma City, OK.  So it's a SW car, thus minimum corrosion.

FWIW & HTH. . .

Thanks for the heads up. It means starting over from square one, but at least there'd be no mystery switches when I got through.

Corrosion shouldn't be a problem for a bus from Borger Tx that place is 50 miles NE of Amarillo Tx
