Spotted this on eBay. Never saw an MC6 before. It looks interesting.

it looks like a whorehouse on wheels....... ;) ;)
The interior can always be changed. Also, the MCI6 used gigantic 12R24.5 tires, that are just about impossible to find-unless they are construction tires that are typically rated to only 65mph. I've seen some change out the bolt pattern with a conversion plate so to run normal 11R24.5's with regular rims. But-this bus looks like it still has the big rims. Good Luck, TomC
I have mixed feelings about the exhaust
To bad they removed the 12v71 from the bus those were a work horse with 12v71
good luck
& people said I was nuts for buying a scenicruiser, 1 of 1001 made.
(edit to add)
Aside from parts being even harder to come by, those buses are HEAVY! That is the main reason they had the 12V in them.
Is the tag axle tire the same as the drive?
They do have a unique look, but so do Edsels, Studebakers, Peugeots, etc
The ones I've seen originally had 11R-24.5 on the tag and 12R-24.5 on the drives and steering-weird. Also, I saw one with a Series 60 in it-it actually looked small in the gigantic engine compartmen. Good Luck, TomC
