I had not seen that. Thanks to Split '66 for posting it.
Lowered buses don't excite me. I would have rejected it because of that. I think the one that's the topic of this thread would have been well bought for what it ended up selling for.
Also, if you want $175,000 for a bus (quickly dropped to $125,000), why can't you at least fix both brake lights? I always laugh when I watch Barrett-Jackson, because it seems about a quarter of the cars have a brake light out.
