Evidently the wrong color steering wheel is no bar to a bus selling for
over 100k.

Early front heater tube. Hm. And tuned suspension.

and the inside door handles are installed wrong....

$143,000 wow.

Two things to say. It does not look like a walk-thru, as the ad states. Also, it look as though the engine compartment and accessories are at the very least well sorted and clean.


Yeah, I guess BJ doesn't know what a walk through is.
Like Clara said, so much for the idea that thw bus market has crashed or is going down.

Meant to put the before & after so you can really see the difference like this.

The early heater tube and the oddly thin dog legs are a little weird.

He's talking about a different bus. Dave Kindig's 65, clipped 21 window went for $275K. $305 with buyers premium.

Damn it, I was hoping for the market to crash.

mandraks Sat Jan 21, 2017 8:51 pm

i know if i had 275,000 to blow i would get me 10 of those 11 window mangos.... i could give one away every year, and after 10 years i would still have a mango...

There has to be some money laundering or some other shennanigans going on here.

Hell, they're paying $30k just for the prvvilege of paying $275k for the bus!

On top of all that, I don't really see anything special about that bus, other than those wheels make it look extra shitty.

Bryan67 Sat Jan 21, 2017 9:20 pm

Is it just me or is the mango Bus the best looking out of the bunch? Even with the whitewalls.
