There is an interesting conversion coming up at this auction.  Might be for somebody.  Don't know anything about it,  just showed up in our email for the equipment auction.  Site is  ciauctions.com the auction is in Portland, OR.

Thinking of the second one.  It will probably go for very little.  The interior looks like it could have been a professional build from way back.

That second one appears to be a 1971 Flxible "New Look". I wonder what engine and transmission it has.

The Flx could have a 6V-71, 6V-92, 8V-71 in a V drive-which this is (they also came with Cummins V903 in straight drive). Judging by the shifter it is a VS transmission. Nice looking conversion though. Good Luck, TomC

This flx was a transit bus?  Would it still have city gearing( of i know there is no way of anyone knowing with asking the converter/ owner)  i mean would it run highway speeds without being tached all out . the inside is pretty nice that windshield would take some getting used to!

Or you could go with this one instead:

For anyone that wants to spend a little less, there are several converted 4106's and other conversions on Inland Empire Craigslist.  Some as low as $6k. 
You don't have to believe everything you think.

I think that windshield looks so cool, even better than those other "new look"s.  ;D
