A similar model, since I had never heard of a Ward bus before.  Built on a Navistar chassis, they said.

Glad you found something. That 5000 watt pure sine inverter is worth most of what you paid!

Greetings,

They are a nice bus to drive. Just watch out for tail-swing,
the one I drove on route could turn on a dime.
