I came across this listing on publicsurplus.com earlier today and thought it was worth sharing. The auction caught my attention because it’s for a classic piece of transit history—a 1995 New Flyer 40-foot bus. Here’s the full breakdown of what’s listed:
**Auction Details:**
Auction #2467477 – 1995 New Flyer 40FT Bus
Started: December 20, 2019, at 4:48 PM MST
Ends: December 27, 2019, at 2:00 PM MST
**Vehicle Specifications:**
- Year: 1995
- Make: New Flyer
- Model: Bus
- Mileage: 458,808 miles
- VIN: 2FYD2LL13SU015803
- Running Condition: May start with a jump (though there are some reported issues).
- Engine Type: Diesel
**Notable Issues:**
The seller notes that the bus doesn’t come with a key and has a hydraulic issue that hasn’t been fully detailed. Additionally, the batteries appear to be missing, which is likely why it isn’t running as-is. There could also be other unidentified mechanical problems or parts missing. For anyone looking to restore it, this could either be a project worth taking on—or perhaps something for parts.
**Images:**
Attached to the listing are a couple of photos—one showing the exterior of the bus, and another taken by Gordon J. Nord, Jr., which gives a better sense of its current condition. From what I can tell, the bus still has some character left in it, even if it needs quite a bit of work to get back into serviceable shape.
If you’re someone who loves vintage vehicles or has experience restoring old buses, this might be an interesting opportunity. I’m not sure how many bids it’s gotten so far, but auctions like this often attract collectors or enthusiasts looking for unique projects.
Thanks again to Dennis for pointing this out—always great to see these kinds of listings pop up. If anyone ends up purchasing it, I’d love to hear about their progress with the restoration!
Best regards,
