How do you contact the seller?  So many questions.  It is almost like all the pictures went out of their way ... NOT to show the important stuff.  Also the description does NOT address many mechanical things.

I am now thinking out loud to myself how much it would cost to travel from SW OR to the Sac CA area with my trusty local friendly knowledgeable heavy mechanic Crown specific guy to do a look and see/drive?

What would we find?  For an example, I think, (not sure) it still has split rims.  So many other things would have to be determined.  Sadly, I think the asking price may also be kinda high without more knowledge.

To do what I want to do with that basic chassis would cost too much for what I would get in return.  Sadly there are better, more complete Bus Conversions out there which actually might be a better $deal$.

Just me.  Thank you for the post.  Crowns Forever!  HB of CJ (old coot)

    Yepp, that's "heavy duty" all right!

Of course it has the HD rear axle.  I am sure it also has the front HD axle of around 125,000 pounds capacity.  Hey...it is a Crown Supercoach.  GVW probably around 325,000 pounds.  That 743 220 Cummins must put out over 10,000 horse power and the old girl certainly will go at least 150 mph ...and float on water .... and get over 30 mpg....and carry 300 kids .... without ever breaking down .... and fly through the air ... etc.  Just me.  HB of CJ (old coot)   Crowns Forever!!
