Title: These look cool! - Sleeper Bunks for MCI Motorcoach
Post by: Barn Owl on February 25, 2008, 09:53:51 PM
I sure would like to have two of them. Wouldn't need them all. I wonder if they could be modified to fit a GM? Just need ten people to go in on this.

Sleeper Bunks for MCI Motorcoach - $3000

"Set of 20 Sleeper Bunks for MCI Motorcoach. Used to transport the Grease on Ice
Show. Would be great for Sports Teams, Ski Trips, Choir Groups, or any overnight
or over the road touring groups."

BK,

Spin me off two of them if you don't need them all. :)

Otherwise, I would be glad to see them put to good use by a fellow busnut. ;)

I asked about getting two when they first were on the market. Got no response from the seller. If BK gets the whole set and has extras I would like to be on the list for two sets. The price is right on the money, I just do not need 20 sets!!!

BK, you got all the money anyway right? ???

Thanks

Grant

Spoke with the owner, and he wants them gone. But, he is not willing to piece them out. He said that if they don't sell he will donate them to a church gospel group or something and take it as a tax write-off. He has 20 sets that seat a total of 40 people. In the photos you are looking at three sets. I was told that when new they were $22k. I would love to get my hands on something like that, but 20 would be too many.

BK, if you need the man's name and number, drop me a message and I will send it to you.

Bummer for me.  :'(

Grant,

If we could get a few more in on this we could pull this off ourselves.

Thoughts?

Well BK, did you get them? The owner took the listing down.

Looks like someone just modified 3 sets of OEM seats,
All the seams look very uncomfortable to me.

Not quite modified OEM, but as coincidence would have it, the Products of Interest section in the March '08 BCM magazine has them. I have been told these can now run 40K + for a seated coach.
