If I'm correct, there was only one completed Chancellor RE... compared to about 3 Wayne RD9000's. Maybe its just me, but it also appears that all of the Carpenter badges has been stripped from the bus. It has been repainted though. |

Like I commented on the post on facebook...its crazy how many design details carpenter borrowed from wayne after they were purchased. What I have been able to notice is: -Entrance door -Driver's control panel..main panel is identical, although switches are carpenter toggle style -Vents below driver's window Anything else I'm missing? |

This is the epitome of Carpenter. I wish I had money to spend!
Maybe I can use the money out of my college fund since the State of Louisiana will pay for my college tuition? Nah lol. |

Exactly my reaction!!!!!!! Cant believe this bus finally surfaced. I remember these were supposed to be flat floors right? |

To the average person, is that bus really worth $23k? To us all, perhaps , but how would it compare to, say, an AARE with similar specs? |

10k at best is what it should be worth, considering it's a one-off bus. |

The origonal plans were to have full air suspension and flat floor I believe. |
Do the world a favor and bring back GMC and Ford conventional chassis......
