Greetings! Sweet bus! Why are you selling? Does it have rear engine? Have you had or know of any water leaks? Do you have maintenance records?

Thank you

What's with the doghouse? Looks like a cardboard box.

That's not cardboard, it's plywood.

Does this bus have insulation in the walls and ceilings?

Thank you
Selling because we bought her to travel and three years later we haven't moved but a few times. We love the bus but our jobs keep us stationary.

Front engine.

Only water leak was from the water heater. The flowmeter cracked from freezing one year and we didn't catch it before water had begun to rust the exterior of the bus on the drivers side. If we don't sell soon, I'll probably spend the time buffing and sealing the spot.

Maintenance records? We have all the paperwork left from the previous owners, but didn't have any maintenance done.

Yeah I'm not sure what is meant be dog house.

All the wood is solid plywood construction.

I'm not sure if they insulated the bus. It is metal so heat and cold does transfer more than a Jayco would.

Hey, great bus! Do you still have it? What rear end ratio do you have, and what is the highway cruising speed? Thanks!

Still for sale as of Jan 18, 2018.
I am unsure if the ratio. I believe 65 was cruising speed.

Dog house is the inside engine cover.

Ah dog house. Got ya.
There is a piece of plywood resting on top of the engine cover. It makes for a better surface to put things on and is more pleasing to loom at. We had plants, CD player, and knick knacks on it.

This bus is in Austin, Tx.

Is it titled as a Bus or an RV?
