1985 MCI 102A3 with 8V92T and 50K on engine. Don't know if in or out of frame overhaul.
Bank has it. A repo from a charter bus co.
Whats it worth?

National Bus Trader mag has a feature every other month called "Round up" that lists recent selling prices for the various models, but doesent list different options or engines, but is for seated coachs. For example the March 2006 round up lists 1985 102A3 from $14,500-$55,000. But the 1991's (last year for that model)were 35,000.-$44,900. 85 LeMirage's went from $9,900. to 10,000. Fun stuff to look at but dosent help much. dave |

Hi C Ray,
The 8v92 certainly makes the coach more attractive, but bear in mind that it's difficult to place a value on ANY coach without some kind of physical inspection. You'll also want to inquire about the coach's history such as prior owner(s) and where the unit was operated. The more you know about both, then the better idea on an approximate value.
Good luck! - Steve |

Hi again C Ray,
I forgot to mention in my previous post...
Just to give you an idea, the transit company I work for had a handful of 1986 102A3's for commuter service. They had 45 seats, no restroom, and an interestingly-designed wheelchair-elevator lift in the middle of the bus. They had mechanical 6v92 engines with ATEC 748 trannies.
When they were sold in the summer of 2002, they only had around 350-450k total miles with minimal corrosion. Each sold for just over $29,000. I hope this helps!

Deduct 5-10K if it has a stick.

The bus in on a bid basis. Possibly today it sold, but they didn't give the price. I was thinking 10-15K.
