Description
The current owner, Roy Nilsson, bought this bus sometime in the late 1970s. At that time it had been used as a school bus in the Värnamo area.
Roy, a skilled mechanic, ran a workshop in Löttorp in northern Öland. He was also a dedicated model aircraft enthusiast with his own airfield, ROYLANDA. The bus was used for several years as transport from his home to the airfield, where it also served as weather shelter and as a secretariat during competitions.
Sometime during the 1980s the bus was taken out of service, and the engine was later sold. After that it was used as storage. It remained there until recently, when it was cleared out and pulled forward to the workshop building, from where it is now being sold.

Condition
-
Mechanical condition
No mechanical components have been tested, and the engine is missing.
-
Interior condition
Most of the interior is missing, giving the new owner plenty of freedom to let their imagination run wild. Perhaps a camper conversion or a cool man cave?
-
Exterior condition
The exterior is largely original, with rust damage and paint flaking. However, the trim, windows, and emblems are in good and usable original condition.
The bus is 920 cm long and has a wheelbase of 450 cm. -
General condition
A bus full of possibilities – restore it to its original condition or build a stylish camper. It has been used as storage for about 40 years and could certainly continue to serve that purpose, or perhaps be transformed into a charming guest cabin.
Facts about the model
