Is this bus worth saving or should I just strip it.The guy wants $200 for it.It still has the pressed bumper on the front and the little window in back.What would the parts be worth?

:shock:

save it. can we see the rest of it? pics please. what year?

of course you should. The bumper is worth 200. so that's a free bus with the purchase of 1 bumper.

I see over 200 on the nose alone
get it.

It's a pressed bumper bus, which makes it a '58 or earlier and rather sought-after. It can be fixed. Definitely pick it up. If nothing else, you part it out to get your money out of it.

No you shouldn't, not worth it, but please pm me the details of how to get it, so i dont go get it. :twisted:

Jeeez, in the UK there would be no question of whether this bus was worth saving - it's worth thousands just in its current state! You guys have got it good! :evil:
