Q & A
Is this drive-able if I get a transfer plate? 03/06/2026 11:46:28 AM
The vehicle was roadworthy when it was parked a few weeks ago. As long as you can certify that you will comply with all laws such as registration, inspection, insurance, licensure, etc, you could drive it off the lot. 03/06/2026 11:52:44 AM
Hello, can you add a photo of the right hand side of the bus and some underneath photos so we can see the level of corrosion? Thanks. 03/06/2026 16:31:28 PM
Pictures of the driver side (right) and some undercarriage photos were sent. Around 2021 the bus began getting NHOU (oil undercoat) on the frame in addition to any factory undercoating. 03/09/2026 09:44:18 AM
Any reason it would not pass inspection? Starts, runs, drives normally? Is the reason it needs to be towed away because of not having a valid inspection sticker? 03/09/2026 11:32:39 AM
We chose not to put a new inspection sticker on it when it expired at the end of February because we knew the bus was going to placed up for sale and had another, newer bus, to take over its route duties. It was not removed from service due to a defect, simply age. There were no-known issues when it was parked but without it actually getting it in for an inspection, I can not guarantee it will pass. 03/11/2026 11:58:27 AM
What does this bus have for an engine? 03/13/2026 11:25:41 AM
I believe the 6.0 V8. 03/13/2026 14:42:11 PM
Good day, Would you be able to take a picture of the rear emergency door on both sides? 03/16/2026 10:47:29 AM
The pictures have been updated with additional images of the rear door. 03/16/2026 12:47:26 PM
How many hours are on the engine? 03/18/2026 07:56:33 AM
We don't track hours, only mileage. 03/18/2026 09:31:50 AM
If we are successful our transport company would not be able to pick up for four weeks, can it stay there till then? 03/18/2026 14:45:20 PM
Generally we require all sales are picked within the prescribe auction timeline. 03/18/2026 14:57:19 PM
