I love it!
It was worth exactly what the winning bidder was willing to spend for it.

  That SC had one of my new tilts on it & sold for $43k + commissions  
or over $46K.  It was not completely stock in color or interior,  
trim, etc. & was really hammered on the Samba Forums for those  
reasons.  On the samba, it was in my opinion, about a $15K bus .     
Needless to say the splittie crowd was disparaging of the amount it  
sold for & price spiraling in the hobby, which was not even close to  
the split westy that sold at Pebble Beach a couple of years ago for  
about $100K!

Tom B.- I thought non stock buses were max at $6K?
