Title: What links to use when looking for converted buses to buy.
Post by: Chariotdriver on October 01, 2006, 08:11:19 PM

I've been spending hours pouring over ebay and a few other site that are freqqent sellers of buses.
For those that already have one, could you share a few links for me to browse around in while looking for a deal on a older (70's-80's) converted bus.
Thanks for any input,
Phil

I don't think you'll find too many dealer types that sell 1970-80 year bus conversions. You might find dealers that have some newer models but it really depends on what your looking for such as model, like Eagle, Mci, Prevost or Gm.

There are of course those on Ebay as you stated from private owners and if you want to just look at bus conversions you can go to:

busforsale.com

philcooper.com

horizoncoach.com   (I think)

easterbussales.com

and there are many more....

Always start your search here:

This is where I found mine:

http://www.sellabus.com/

As you shop, keep in mind that the price you see is probably very negotiable.

I'd found a good overall resource, that also lists dealers (and websites) state by state.  Learned a lot, and in browsing various dealers, I found my 4107.  

I'll try to post it as a link, but don't know if it'll work directly.  Good luck with the search.

Also, I'm impressed as heck with the knowledge and help from the folks right here - and even more impressed with the welcoming and inclusive attitude.
