A bus is at least kind of practical. I want a train car.

And I thought I’d have problems parking the bus.

Brills are good. I mean, if you can’t get a Flxible.

but seriously... where would you go for parts of this thing?

Hey, pep-boys, do you have an alternator (AKA turbo) for this bus?

NO. Have you tried home depot yet?

Yeah, I know. My wife asked me where I thought I was going to park it. Then she reminded me of all the other projects I have around the house. :(

But, just look at it!

That thing is sooooo classy though. Imagine showing up to car shows in it. I need details man (even if you don’t want to post the ad to prevent poaching lol)

Wow, that’s neat! What is the asking price, if you don’t mind the question?

It’s a ‘44 Brill. I’m not sure exactly when it was converted, but they included a restroom; a full kitchen with fridge, sink, and propane stove; a top-mounted a/c unit; and a generator. It has sleeping for seven.

It’s supposedly one of twelve still on the road.

The price isn’t too far into the crack pipe realm at $20k. It’s been sitting in the same place for quite some time, so I’m sure the price is negotiable. The nearest comparable I can find is a ‘49 that sold for $17k.

$20k. It’s been sitting a while, so it’s probably very negotiable.

20 k is pretty reasonable, likely considering LOTS of custom work. I wouldn’t touch it with a 10 foot pole- but that seems like NP to me.

God that thing is great looking. Old busses look so much more modern than old cars. If I had the money I'd buy that all day.
