It is probably too soon, but you could check with some major transit agencies (bigger metro areas are probably better, and the longer they've had racks on their buses better still) and see if they have any they're trying to unload as surplus. Given that you're going to have to 'build it up' anyway, you'd have a great starting point for the repair/build.
