Did they make MCI's in 1995 that looked like this? Doesn't seem right to me. Anyway, it's cheap. Hovering around scrap value:

Could be one of those rap star types where they bounce up and down in the front. :)

Round headlights and all? Interesting. I'm with you cliff. I don't care for 9's either. ;)  but I do love ours...even tho she's an ugly duckling

A poem from childhood -- B's the bus, the bouncing bus, that bears the shopper storeward.  It's fun to sit in the back of it, but the seats are better forward.

Or, am I the only one who thinks there's a wrecker just out of sight?

My bus does that all the time, the massive power and torque of the mighty Detroit Diesel engine makes it hard to keep the front wheels on the ground!

I also think it's a MC-12.

I thought it was the square headlamps that helped differentiate it as a 12?

Most but not all MC-12's had square headlights, but you can't tell what that bus has from the posted picture (which is the only picture on the ad of the outside).

I asked the guys that rebuilt my coach engine that when they were done it would be cool if there was lots of power to lift the front wheels off the ground . it never happened

I bet it has one of the rare 16V92TI 1000 hp factory installations and that the coach is just doing a wheelie at the drag strip.
