Around where I live you can purchase a decent used schoolbus with a Cummins
ISB5.9 backed by an Allison auto for relatively little money. Granted, they
have a lot of miles on them, but I've been thinking for some time that it would
make a good conversion... Now, all I have to do is to get my local club member
with the tired M211 to turn me loose...
