Right now, probably very little. Everybody seems to be in a holding pattern with recent insane fuel prices and collapsing economy.Hopefully things will get better in another year. Wishful thinking probably. |

It's all worth something, if you can find buyers. Some local charter outfit running this vintage of equipment? A local heavy bus rebuild company? The bits and pieces are only worth core/scrap value. Details with pics on E-bay might net some interest, but you are only going to get marginally more than what it would cost to dispose of the stuff. 19 model year old bus is deep into the second/third tier commercial part of the market that typically has no shop, and no money for spares. happy coaching! buswarrior |

There is still alot of older stuff used commercially, especially in the NY area. You need to connect with the right market. The AC compressor, if good, is valuable as well as seats in excellant condition. Maybe a company that is running Prevosts can send you in the right direction. |

If you do decide to part it out let me know. I have a 92 XL and could use a few parts. |

Hi Joe I have a 91 XL that I stripped and am converting. Three years ago I got $2200 for the total A/C system, $1200 for the seats, $500 for 6 SS wheel covers, $500 for the video system, and about $400 for all the scrap metal/enclosed luggage racks, etc. I still have the interior light fixtures, lamps, etc, unsold. I put an ad in eBay listing all the parts on one site, listing one part that I wanted to sell to keep eBay off my back. People then contacted me for the things not listed for sale and I set up a separate auction for them. BTW, I am looking for a rear bumper, got a good one with no bends/dents you want to get rid of? Hope this helps you. Rob 91 LeMirage XL Missouri |
