Yes, good memory BSGO! i like mine, haven't started the conversion yet, but i love the shell. i was lucky, someone else started the conversion process and removed the restroom. lucky me! mine is an '86, and i really like it. i also have a '87 an-440-3 transliner and they both handle well, and turn fast. they also share the cockpit and other components, including the windshield i beleive... hope this helps, any other questions feel free to email me Don, just click on my name. all the best, Bob |

Randy fawlkerson has about 8 (eight) of these for sale, they all have 8V92's DDEC11(400hp) HTB748 transmissions. They are from santa clareta transit. They have been worked on at Valley power systems in Bakersfield, CA. so I should be able to find out about engine and trans condition.He is asking $25,000. each. I was thinking about calling on them. My only intrest in these buses is I am thinking about buying one of them. Thanks for the info.

I love the headlight and turn markers off a W116 Mercedes, one of which I had (1980 300SD). |
