What with Christmas and Hanukkah right around the coroner, this Muni bus is the perfect gift for the holiday season. Starting out at $2,300.00 on eBay, this 1984 articulated 60-ft MAN bus began life carrying passengers throughout the streets of San Francisco before being hauled down to SoCal to star in the movie The Italian Job and a couple of other small television bit parts. This Muni bus is still in its original condition, complete with of-its-era colors, logos, and original roll signs.
Ideal usage:
- Make it your very own rogue VIP bus, picking up passengers at your discretion
- The perfect gift for that special someone with whom who you want to spend the rest of your life, but don't want to rush into anything just yet
- Low-income, luxury housing (a Muni seat is still more spacious than a Cubix pod)
- Only you can restore the 74

I want to go there!
From the ebay listing: "This bus is still in original San Francisco Muni condition"
I'm guessing the photos are misleading then, because they don't show any tags.
Engine: Man Pancake. Mmmm.
Next stop, Burning Man.
If I had the money, I would buy it and weld the front doors shut then stick "15-Third" on the signage and drive the old route back and forth all day long.
Maybe even have a live polka band playing as we drive around.
A boy can dream, no?
+1
hell to the YES. WANT.
Authentically pre-tagging!
I wonder if you could just pull over and leave it in a bus zone all day while at work?
Whoever buys it will be undoubtably late where ever they go.
FYI - Blinktag Inc., a local web design/city planning firm in San Francisco (headed by yours truly) just snagged it.
