So it's under shrink wrap, and they want it to stay that way, but they want the money too. How many people into bus pornography have 16k to burn? I don't have $16.00 to burn. The bus wank museum is probably full of retired doubledeckers right now. $7.50 for a ticket to run up the stair and ring the bell? Winmutts already tied down with his.

Nice bus but goofy seller. No mechanical or chassis pictures. No description of drivetrain or top speed. Others have sold in that price range on Ebay in the last five years so they may get their asking price. Someone bought one on the left coast a few years ago. Drove it home to the right coast and immediately put it up for sale again. Any guesses on its top speed?

Nooo, it doesn't meet the 'wonderful use' test. Pick up kids at the airport for camp make a wish? No- you'd have to pull seats for wheelchair & gurneys.

How bout that guy in the ad, the chief shoe giver for Tom's Shoes, sprinkling shoes to the underprivileged everywhere? Nope bound to scuff the undercoat on rocks in the road with a load of shoes and happy orphans in uruguay. Paint messed up on the bumper when it's pulled out of the mud, macaw crap on the roof.

Maybe ex-justice Souter could use it to hang live free or die tags on and go up and down the driveway for the mail & sunday paper.

Personal shuttle for Jane Goodall? Hell, you ever see what monkeys throw?

I know what's going to happen- Eccentric tycoon shuttle around martha's vineyard, may-october operation only. No wait, salt air. Upper class twit shuttle at the Chautauque Institute http://www.ciweb.org/, May-September operation, no salt air. That's it.

I dare someone to buy it and send them pics from your trip to burning man. They'd *****. Or use it to ferry cocaine to jungle airstrips.

Do tell! There's a place in oregon gets $20k for cherry vanagon + rebuilt diesel, maybe its a 1.6NA or TDI swap, I forget, or for a cherry Volvo 240D wagon + new/rebuilt diesel engine. I drove those wet loaves of bread from volvo for 20 years. 123 car beats it hands down for handling. Join the CWC and get some turtlewax, fix the AC your still 17K ahead.

Why hasn't anyone made one of these things into a psuedo AMG yet? Can't you see this thing with pentas and a tuned M118 in it?

Or better yet, ground-effect flares, and AMG steering wheel and an AMG badge. Nothing else.

If there is one fad that NEEDS to get popular over here, its Dekotora.
