Depending on how long it has been sitting, you may be able to nurse it home. Often times prior owners have lost track of how long the bus has really been non op.
If you can get it to run for a few minutes at a time, you may be able to get in on a "lowboy" trailer for transport. We had to do this last year , when we had an airbag fail, dropping the body down, putting the tires in a rubbing position with a fender well. Towing is a no go for several reasons in my opinon.
Coach tire failure while being towed could leave you with a huge towing bill. ( Newells have no spare }
Air suspension failure while underway would do the same, and then you absolutely would have to get a low boy trailer.
Heay duty towing rates for us were 350 to show up, and 6 dollars a mile. Be safe in this, whatever you do.
Good luck in your adventure.
