You cxould name it the Stealth Coach, that paint job looks like something straight out of FEMA.

You had me at 50 series. Great coach, greater motor. Enjoy the conversion.

Not sure. I should have asked during my call to MCI to check on some parts and become a customer. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow. It came stock with a series 50 and big the DN50 Alternator. I talked the guys ear off a bit.:D

I thought the tranny was a B500, Allison Auto, but there have been a bunch of buses floating across my screen and this could be a 740. One of the ads is down and the old one only mentions Allison auto.

Will find out.

I know, right?

Both my GF and I love the paint. If we were doing anything but a 9 or 12, I wouldn't dig it, but the 9 and the 12 really look like a greyhound.

From my perspective, this rig is really about drivetrain and general condition. 1st inspection (mechanic walk through - just visual to confirm sellers statements) came back real strong. Hope it continues.
