At $5K, this seems like a pretty good deal if you wanna do a little work. I've seen a lot more money being asked for a lot less Bus.
What's missing though, are pics of the rust "in all the usual places." I'm not sure what the seller's interpretation of that statement means (surface, cancer, missing metal?). And curiously, no pic of the left side.

I've seen this bus for $4800 here on Craigslist with additional pictures.

Hard to imagine one owner keeping the same car for almost fifty years, and letting it deteriorate to that point...

We used to be able to go to the wrecker and spend the day with hundreds of ACVW's that people didnt take care of. Pick parts and crawl all over them

Not sure where else to put this. Not so much a good deal as interesting. Delete if necessary. A TVA electric bus. I saw something here some time ago, but could not quickly locate the thread just now.

Two things would scare me away-
* Where it's located
* It's a bondo bucket with lots of rust. The rear hatch seal is dried up and oversprayed. I'd hate to see this bus stripped naked in bare metal.
