I thought some of you may be interested -
I was at a local auction of "collectible" stuff on Saturday and I saw a scale model of a GMC RTS 40 passenger bus being sold. A plaque that was with it said it was the only one built, and it was later used as the prototype for the production model. It sold for $2500. If you want to see what these look like just Google "GMC RTS 40" then click on Images at the top.
It was about 8 feet long and about 16 inches tall, which would make it about 1/5 scale. I didn't have a camera with me so I didn't get a picture. And no, I did not buy it...
If you are interested the auction listing is posted at: http://goo.gl/YxBp0
