Hi There , thank you to eastcoastcb, capt , cadallackid , rusty and bunch others for details and pointers for buying a bus.
We have done a ton of research and you all know sooo much more . We would love to hear your thoughts. some of you like the GM some like the fords and cummins etc. We are in MA plenty of rusty buckets here so AZ KS TX look like better buying grounds. Seems like some of you enjoy watching the auction sites so we're asking for leads. Some of you bidding.
Our purpose is to travel part time and scuba dive . We need to do some stealth camping in the city visiting our kids. Looks like we narrowed down to shuttle bus conversion. the turtletop van seems a bit too small. Although a service box truck might be more secure for expensive scuba gear (ccr) . We will custom build out lav, kitch, etc. A separate compartment for scuba gear with venting system. Is solar on the roof a big thing for any of you?
We are watching the auctions purplewave has a few .
public surplus has a bunch
Public Surplus: Paratransit Bus
Ebay seems overpriced. Barginbusnews seems overpriced.
If you add an auction link , please lean on the side of "great buy, I'd buy it if I was in the market" ..won't hold it against you lol
THANK YOU
