It's on eBay right now listed in Tucson, AZ |
you should've snagged that bad boy when it was in your area. |
its 45min away from me....strange.. and im in NC not AZ |
Unless you contacted them and asked, I still think it's in Tucson.
They are probably just spamming multiple craigslists, I see cars from outside AZ on the AZ craigslist all the time. _________________ How to Post Photos

Even crazier when people assume that all high tail light buses require a pressed bumper, unless they are just faking the funk. Some poor schlub will buy it thinking it was a rare pressed bumper 15 window. I'm sure Adam Hughes would jump in here and set him straight before too long.  |

Why buy 1 of those for 55k,when you could buy a fleet of singlecabs and have the ability to haul 12 humans and 6 tons of cargo.  _________________ Defying conventional wisdom since 1970 |

With no judgements made, it sounds like some money was invested.
From the ad

| It just got out of the body shop, where Robert Skinner Performed his Magic on it. It got a donor front nose, from a correct year, as well as the inner nose support, as well as both doglegs and drivers door. |
I can confirm it was listed with an Ambulance Fan in Al's 2007 ad. _________________ How to Post Photos

The fact that it's listed at $10 should tell you somethings wrong there... _________________ Your Vanagon sucks, Stop waving at me.

Hey here's a brilliant idea.
one of us should step up and buy it, just to see what it is, or we can split it 3 ways and have shipped to the closest one of us to the seller. |

your asking a person,.....whos on crack....."are you on crack" Even the police have trouble getting answers on that one. The usuall answer they do get is high speed chases. Pondering the high speed and cornering capabilitites of that crack ride. _________________ Waiting for santa to drop off funky green. I can wish can't I???? |

I'll donate a few bucks to satisfy my curiosity. I wonder if he has three more? _________________ Confusious say it takes it takes two wipes to know you need three, but it takes three wipes to know it only needed two. |

Though I would have to agree Everett, money spent on wrong parts could have been saved. This bus makes that 15 window that was on the Samba for sale in Texas earlier in the week for $16K look like a $30K bus. |
