Like I said in my original post; it broke my heart to leave all that fuel (and $$$) in the tanks. But I had to get the buses from point A to point B before the end of the month to get the quoted price. All 3 were supposed to be drive-able but 2 of the 3 had lift pumps go out from sitting and had to be towed. That was a bit of a snag and added a significant $$ to my cost basis.



I got the buses from a bus contractor/truck dealer/scrapper that just wanted to flip them. I found the deal by hard shopping; pavement pounding if you want to call it that. I saw 1 bus in a local auto shopper magazine and then saw it again for less in the next edition. The lower price was within striking range of where I needed to be on a deal, so I called. Turned out he had 3 units and was willing to deal to move them.
