Bagged another Conference Bus.

Post by tjlglass »

Recent eBay buy and hidden among a group of others. This is the 2nd one I've owned and I've only ever seen 4 in total. Has any other members got one ? And do we think code 2 or 3.

We don't know what the conference was for,I would assume it is a code 3 seeing as the original labels are underneath the conference labels, It is still quite a nice piece and would be quite desirable if we could find out the history behind them.

I'm sure one day we will find out, I sold my last one to a fellow member on here for good money, mind you that one was mint. This has a few pinholes and is really difficult to price as not enough is known, I will stick my neck out and say that they are rarer than the Baron of Beef bus ?

Just abit of luck really Jazz spotting it, mind you I wasn't the only one who see it as I was bidding against a fellow member and friend but didn't know that till after, so it wasn't cheap, but I'm still happy.

It is a Code 3 but a very nice and collectible one. Never been able to get this one. Good catch.
