Re: Skoolie for SALE 94 Thomas bus now RV

Asking Skoolie members....what is the 'right' price to ask for our 1994 Thomas bus conversion? See details on previous post.
Thanks for the input

Good question. I'd scour the Web for prices on bus conversions. Off hand, for a skoolie, anything over 10k, I believe, is too much.

Hubby would try to beat you down on the price to $8K, but he likes haggling on price. It's a sport. There is a nurse who recently posted on here who might be interested. Like Bus-Bro said.... $10K is high for a skoolie and this one still has all the windows in it.

First rule of bus conversion (whether highway coach or skoolie) forget about getting your $$ out of it.

Just pointing out that sale of Thomas bus conversion is $10K if bought by the end of the month (August 2011). See updates to original post~!

Re: Skoolie for SALE 94 Thomas bus now RV

Ha bus bro
you must not want a nice bus if think $10.000 is to much. a good converted bus will cost you that much, unless you want someone's halfbutt build one put together or juck, a good converted bus completed with no rust low miles will be that much or more,and i have seen a few in my time,thats why some of these campground will not let them in...i have a 94 bird and it looks like a class A and was asking $12.000 toke two yrs in the makeing..but some i have seen,,,, lol,,, i won't clam to own.

i say if you going to build a bus,do it nice an take you time....i know it a rat race out there, BUT...

Re: Skoolie for SALE 94 Thomas bus now RV

Ha ,MJ, if you are going for a flat nose,go fo a southern bus ( no Rust ) and you want one with heavy axles. there are all kinds of opinion's on make and models
i like the blue birds there well insolute,and also fine one with belly bay's..save you a lot of headach;s....the TC 2000 are nice

i got lucky on mine it was a 94 tc2000 bird with only 36000 miles use just for the band and small trips,,,so go to your school dis and see when there sale is and can u get on it..
