This bus is one of the last of it’s kind to ever be produced, as International had discontinued the 3800 chassis & cowl the year before in 2002, and Blue Bird had only produced very few conventionals on the International 3800 and it’s successor-the International 3300 as IC was firmly committed to building it’s own body on it’s own chassis; and Blue Bird was becoming committed to building it’s own body on it’s own Vision chassis & cowl.
