Coachwork: Thomas
Chassis: Ford E450
Engine: 7.3L Powerstroke
For Sale: 2003 E450 Shorty

Sadly, I am selling my short bus conversion project as I no longer have the time to devote to this project. I am only looking to get out of it my hard costs. As such the price reflects only what I've spent out of pocket not any of the 100's of hours of my time to get it to its current state. I have all receipts/records since I've owned it.



Specs
Chassis: 2003 Ford E450 SuperDuty
Model: Thomas Built Buses Minotour DRW 051MS
Engine: 7.3L Powerstroke Diesel
Mileage: 178,580
Location: Reno, NV
Price: $9,800

Details
Full details of my build can be found on my build thread here.
I am second owner, bus was from CA school.
Rust Free
Interior has been stripped and is ready for build out
Sienna recliner seat for passenger
Overhead/Warnings lights with hoods removed, replaced with leds (front/rear)
Deleted six windows
Exterior has been painted with Raptor bed liner

I purchased it with ~170,000 miles and have since done the following mechanical repairs (have service records):
New alternator
Drive Belt
New front tires
Fuel filters
Transmission service
A/C service (removed rear A/C, front blows cold)
New block heater

Included in price is 2 AGM deep cycle batteries, 1000W inverter, all electrical connections for battery bank, diesel heater, and hard insulation.

NV Title in hand, registered and insured as a commercial vehicle as NV requires full conversion for RV title. I have lots more pics I can send in email if interested.

Did it sell?
Snarky: aren't ads supposed to be deleted once sold?
Honest: interested!

Congrats on your sale and on doing the right thing in announcing that it is sold.

Way too many folks post up a good looking bus at the right price point only to never be heard from again, leaving some wondering if it is still somehow for sale two years after the original post!

If you get the urge to take another swing at a conversion, you know where to go to get all kinds of advice and opinion on how to proceed!
Good luck to you, going forward...
