eBay PT 40 - Anyone familiar?

[Mike Hohnstein]

Very major. Keep the cruise airs. Don't over look the rule of thumb, ad
$15/20k to any used BB for things that will need attention. Most reliable shops
will charge around $100 an hour to work on a bird.

Interesting - I was wondering about the A/C units, as the description said 3
but I couldn't see 3 on the roof. Now I know why.

Would it be possible to convert to roof mount units without extraordinary
effort - is it likely the bus came pre-wired for that? Or would this be a
major undertaking?
