I posted this about a week and a half ago about the auction that occured today.
http://www.busconversions.com/bbs/index.php?topic=5837.0
All 3 buses were converted and sold with 15 to 17.5 KW diesel generators. They all need work. But, I consider them bargains. (None went to scrap and were purchases by fellow bus nuts.) The results -
MCI 5a , 8V71 Auto - $3200.
MCI 8 , 8V71 Auto - $3200.
MCI 8 , 8V92T Auto (Heartland Conversion I think). - $12,000.

what did that 1993 Caddy Seville STS with 50K miles go for ??
Ed, it was good to finally meet you at the auction today. Even though I love my Prevost I am real excited about the MC8. I appreciate you and the other CCO members helping me get familiar with the MCI. My wife and I are planning on picking it up tomorrow. Hopefully it will be an uneventual trip home. We are looking forward to seeing you and the other bus-nuts at the CCO rally.

The 93 Cadillac went for about $5500-$6000 as I remember.
The CCO, Converted Coach Owners, Halloween Rally, 10-19-07, is described in the Upcoming Rally Section. This rally is in central Michigan. Other CCO rallies throughout the year are in Ontario, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.
