For Sale: 1973 MCI-7

Good Old Bus needing some love that I can't give it. All aluminum and stainless, 871 detriot, air bags, auto transmission, 12kw diesel generator, some new rubber. Was a well done conversion in the 90's, hate to see her go but I have way too much stuff going on. Am open to joint venture as I only would need use for a month every year. Have space to work and tools. $1234 or best offer.

That's a nice looking bus. I'd imagine it drives like a dream when properly maintained. From what I've seen and read, they're extremely well built but but their overall complexity scares me away. Hopefully you'll find a buyer with the resources and capabilities to bring it back and enjoy it.
Best wishes

I believe it is CT. (Based on old posts)

A steal, $1234 is lower than scrap prices.

...EJCON, is it in CT?

We have an MC-7...in fact, we live in ours and I'm typing this from the "living room" inside it. They're great buses and I wouldn't really say they're any more complex than any other coach, and much less complicated than the new electronic systems. If someone gets this one, feel free to reach out to me with any questions as you move forward.

Appears to be suspension, the one pic shows the tires standing fully inflated but the top of the treads are obscured behind the body panel. May not be indicative of a problem if its just been sitting for a while without being started suspension airbags will bleed out air over time and with temperature cycling.
