The best way to have fun with this bus is to sell it and do something fun with the money.

I truly believe this bus would not be economical to build if it was free.

good luck with the sale.

The decision to get rid of it sounds like the reasonable thing to do - unless one really needs a storage shed. 25,000 pesos sounds about right too.

I think 25,000 pesos is tad too much. 12,000 pesos and you may be getting warmer.

Good luck with the sale

At least he’s advertising it as a storage shed/off road/movie prop bus, consistent with his prior statements. No worse than all the other rusty buses being flipped in the classifieds. A reasonable person should be able to discern that it’s in need of more metal work to be safe as a driver.

My guess? He’s found a better, less rusty bus hidden away somewhere up there in the Canadian wilds, and is getting his marbles together to snatch it.

With that welding, I think it is best for all road users that he sells it.
