1998 Goshen Coach

Does anyone know about the quality of a bus like this? Please share any information you know about it. It is a diesel, automatic. Thank you.

Someone else is actually working on a Goshen coach at this time in an active thread. That is going to be a learning experience for a lot of us. How different can it be?

That's a nice looking rig.

It just began so you haven't missed anything yet. I read about it just this evening, only two posts so far. It's in the list of current threads but I can't remember which one.

Have you ever looked at the possibility of a bookmobile, or repurposing a police mobile command center or even a bloodmobile? A lot of the work is done with good insulation and a generator already installed. Those are most often 35' or so. Probably to big, huh?

I'm just thinking there must be a reason why the Goshen isn't more popular for conversion. If you got this one, it would be the third one I've heard of in the past two years. But then I have a swiss cheese memory at times. Some call it a selective memory.

Excellent idea! I'll look.

Tiny wheels and low ground clearance would be my guess as to why we don't see more of them.
