Love to see an older Newell brought back to life. These classics deserve to be respected.

Wow. That was one gummed-up radiator. I love that Scott takes a test ride with his customers. That shows faith in his work, and a willingness to truly dial-in any outstanding problems that might still be lurking with the buses. That's the kind of personal service that is needed to know that a bus has been properly serviced.

We parked next to a mid 80 Newell 2 years ago. That owner remodeled the whole coach. Pre wide body era. Narrow but easier to navigate. Then I saw one like this in Kansas. 17,000$ and told it drive anywhere. I didn’t believe that for a second and I heard the new owner made it 300 miles till something stopped it. You did good like always and I’m sure they will have the coach they dreamed of when they bought it, now. Fair seas and may the wind be at your back.

A radiator in the rear. Please comment on that. I had a Dutch Star with a radiator on the left side like a 4106. You don’t see modern buses built that way, but motorhomes of that era seemed to have that option. Don’t rear radiators suffer from more dirt, and poor circulation?

Proper maintenance is the issue with all makes though it looks like MCI has more rust than others if driven in the salt belt a lot during their working life. The frames of the body were mild steel square tubing. Spend the money for a good inspection by someone actually qualified to inspect a bus. Don't buy a bus unless you have the thousands of $ to spend to fix all the deferred stuff that wasn't fixed or fixed right.
@Blazer02LS Жыл бұрын
@@hotpuppy1 Being in NY I'm used to rust but don't really want to replace 1/2 the steel in a rig along with other repairs. I'm used to working on fire equipment and one of the things there is that they will use some odd part that the supplier had 200 on the rack and when you need a replacement they no longer exist. I ended up making a complete gauge package for one engine when the fully integrated pump display failed and the company that made it no longer exists!
