PREVOST MOTORCOACH BUNK MODEL FOR SALE $60,000!!!

In this video, I talk to ‪@AZExpert‬ about a Prevost rv that is a bunk model with a mid entry. This coach is for sale at Cassones RV in Mesa Arizona.

[@captainskippy6622]

“That is so cherry”. Agreed. Sweet. 1984 was a good year. Joined the police department, son was born, got divorced! I should add this bus.

[@craigorford9932]

Andrew when it comes to RV’S you are the man to see

[@smacdiesel]

AZ Expert is awesome, been watching his channel for a while. Ton of knowledge!

[@cityslickeroutdoors8306]

Wow this is way nicer inside that I thought it was gonna be. I could easily live in this.

[@9to5golfhughmanning88]

New aquahot, new batts, tires. The cabinets are great! You may need to make this your project coach Andrew!

[@steeldavidson]

Wow, 1984 prevost and its not in bad condition. Not a fan of the interior layout but someone could fall in love with it and for $60k IDK. great find Adrew thanks for showing this unique mid entry bus.

[@DLTJR1959]

New Aqua Hot, Lifeine 8D's (6), 2 sine wave inverters, new paint. A lot of coin has been spent on this bus. Somebody is gonna get a bargain. Really. Taking out those bunks and replacing with a washer/dryer and it would be great for a couple. Or leave it as is. Andrew, this is a great video. I love seeing these old buses. Thanks so much for the content.

[@sanfranciscobay]

I like side entries mid coach. Put 3 bucket seats or a bench seat couch up front that swivel to face the rear when parked.

[@FadeToBlackLLC]

Ok outside I wasn't a fan but I do like the interior. No slides keeping it simple with a lot of room.

[@Sahadi420]

get rid of one of the sofas and put in a nice TV entertainment center there. Get rid of the other couch and put in 3 recliners. You have a master BR and 2 bunks. Do people that use these really need to sleep 8??

[@AdriaanVerburg]

@@Sahadi420 that way you can take the grandkids.

[@12yearssober]

@@AdriaanVerburg Hell no they make messes

[@sanfranciscobay]

3:23 Remove the Table and Chairs, turn that area into a Diner Seating which converts to a sleeper and you have more sleeping capacity.

[@cardo1111]

Agreed, classic Benz in an era without all the electronics, better built than today's models.

[@DevaJones03]

Whoever did the conversion killed that. its gorgeous

[@luisroig104]

Tht is truly not a bad looking bus for the year. Wow. Thats a steel. Wish you could have looked at odometer. Good find Andrew.

[@tomaddleman8225]

Thats tempting for sure. Great find Andrew.

[@stevedrinkard7297]

Many rock bands used these i absolutely love these

[@bill8582]

Wow!!! Man I wish that would have come up now, I love the mid entry, and a place for my grankids to sleep. I'm in love!!!

[@NoelBarlau]

Love this type of impromptu review. And anybody knocking AZexpert hasn't watched his channel. Dude knows his stuff. I'll be driving my Itasca Meridian from Atlanta to Mesa if it needs any major work.

[@ryanpomedli6550]

A great value there. I like the interior.

[@timothytrainful]

It’s a 1984 and it’s looks that good?? Three years younger than me!! I will be dropping my money for that coach!!

[@k9advcru562]

This bus is a smoking good deal! If I didn't already have my coach i'd buy this in a second! The sound from those 8V71T engines just cant be beat! Also NO EMISSION controls.

[@pilotgirl5953]

Dam, this is a good deal for sure...... Too bad with COVID I can't get down to see this being in Canada.

[@surfmotor]

Thats pretty cool!

[@tgiii2003]

I’m late to the party. Beautiful Coach

[@pjgreen1183]

Not sure if buddy there's much of an expert , He seemed to have a hard time just opening and closing the engine bay doors,,,,,,,,Looked like he was going to damage them,,,,,

[@ninorcsinned3465]

Not everyone can be as cool as you and be an expert engine bay door opener. Please start a youtube channel and teach us plebes how to open all types of doors. Or better yet, check out his youtube channel, you'll probably learn something.

[@cityslickeroutdoors8306]

I think they were locked

[@pjgreen1183]

Hopefully if I did start my own KZbin channel it would be more successful than yours with only two subscribers. Maybe the guy has some knowledge, I am only looking at the video and would not want someone working on my vehicle who accidentally damages stuff. Imagine going somewhere for service on your beautiful newly painted coach with stainless steel panels and the guy can't open the doors properly because It's been a while since he's worked on your coach or he's not familiar with it. Then when he closes the doors he closes them improperly so the doors overlap the wrong way, Don't you think that will make you feel a little bit uncomfortable if you saw that someone was doing that to your coach or do you think that's OK?

[@cityslickeroutdoors8306]

PJ Green I’d tell him to knock 10,000 off the price for the way he opened and closed those doors

[@govtwheelspinner]

Man I wish I hadn't just started my search........

[@johnwilliams8353]

It looked ok but when you start to travel it will unravel first motor then trans oil leaks everywhere. So the price of this will be about 130000 plus lots of towing to the shop .

[@deanhauser6626]

its been running since 84. 36 years

[@ericbenjamin6504]

That’s a very nice Prevost

[@johnpavon799]

Great Video, Old Coach!

[@slewofdamascus]

You could get rid of those bunks (I'm not a bunk model guy) and make into a little office area, with enough room for a washer-dryer combo. I'd want the bus checked out by your other AZ buddy to know what I'm getting into mechanically, for sure, but if it checked out - it would be a good bargain and probably worth throwing some dough at...I had an '85 300SD, which was a $50k vehicle in 1985, it ran and ran like a good thing, did 100MPH in the fast-free lanes like it was doing 20MPH in a gated community. The quality of those vehicles were special. Unfortunately, they are at an age where everything important is at or past its final legs and the cost-benefit analysis doesn't usually add up, except for the rare few that were lightly-used, and pampered with a P by a reputable dealer.

[@djpmatchbox]

now thats a good lookin coach. wish i had 60k to drop on it.

[@CommonSense-iu6wz]

It's nice I really like the blue ☺️

[@kaspar_1982]

50 grand to buy 50 grand to road ready and 5 to 10 grand annually to maintain.

[@h5mind373]

I've worked on everything I've ever owned. Would not hesitate to plunk down a couple grand on the proper tools and a diesel maintenance class at the voc-tech school. A dealer will charge around $200 an hour labor. The best money anyone will ever spend on a rig like this is a professional pre-purchase inspection. Steer clear of the duds and buy one which has been used and loved.

[@ston3kill3r]

Wish it was in Australia I'd buy it

[@santiagolebron8810]

[@shekharmoona544]

No one talks about MCI RV conversions anymore. 😢

[@morrisbroomer1692]

Very nice 👍

[@eldonpolitico5612]

Do you need a CDL to own and drive or purchase one of this?

[@h5mind373]

No, these are registered as an RV, so no CDL requirement. You may want to check if your state requires an adder to your license for the air brakes, however. When we buy, we're buying older and well-maintained. Trying to find a later one with super low miles is not the bargain you may imagine. They need to be used and driven to stay in good shape.

[@latikaosby8165]

Good morning

[@JayBando213]

[@shelleykentner4900]

Smokin good deal and a smoker. Give you 50k if you rebuild the bottom end. It’s been across America and back twice with the back up band.

[@cintroberts6614]

[@gruponemesis]

mannnn i want it but im not readyyyyyy

[@jaypuck6912]

What's up with the rear axle? Looks like it's a solid 3 inches inside compared to the other one, but then it looks like that on other side of coach too. No thanks. $20k max from my pocket.

[@h5mind373]

It's called a tag axle. increases the weight carrying capacity of the bus. it's inset because it's only one tire each side. the forward axle has dual tires each side.

[@missychan63]

That panel looks like it goes under the dash...

[@motorcity429]

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

How reliable and inspection are these to own and repair? Look fun but also giant money pit. Can you get a warranty on these older Prevost?

[@jakem.6359]

I agree....super cool for its age. Not crazy about the black.... Do a nice triple color simple paint scheme without the black.....few updates on the interior and you'd have a super nice coach. Super nice inside for its age...must have been redone at some point. And you would definitely either want to be a mechanic or let someone like the Bus Grease Monkey to go thru it.

[@mr34059]

been watching his channel since you recommended him..love the guy.. down to earth ..humble ..if people havent seen his channel check it out great..hell of a guy

[@sanfranciscobay]

Andrew. Can you make a video where you compare MCI versus Prevost on Bus Conversions/Motorhomes?

[@sanfranciscobay]

4:22 For sleeping space, all you need is about 6.6 feet length, 24 inches wide and 24 inches tall (the dimension from outside shoulder to shoulder plus 2 inches. You could easily fit 3 bunks in that space. Install a lee cloth like what is used on sailboats for berths like this so sleepers don't fall out when the boat is heeling and you're good to go.

[@Pantheroful]

Between the RV and the old school Merc, time has stopped on that lot inside the fence line!

[@Smallbusiness-uh4qt]

it looks nice

[@cityslickeroutdoors8306]

I’ll give him $35k for the bus and the car. But I need to get the cash together. Really nice prevost so amazing.

[@MarkTyner-e8g]

[@a1700zz]

Nice coach for the price, because I have a limit of 175,00 and I would buy one for less if the bus was in excellent shape and needed a little work

[@rodwilliams2782]

Question : My topper channels on my 2004 Holiday Rambler NAVIGATOR are pulling out of the top of the coach at the radius due to corroded fasteners and someone has put several fasteners in the general area to try and fasten the rail to the side . I have a fiber glass roof fortunately my question is what is in behind there to resacure the topper rail . I bought stainless fasteners but I am just looking for a bit of professional guidance here before I go drilling holes inbetween all the swiss cheese up there

[@user-vm5ud4xw6n]

I would snag that if I had the dough! Much nicer than the new stuff. Can’t stand the gaudy graphics they put on coaches nowadays! They look like a light show inside. Newer isn’t always better. Wonder what the mileage is?

[@bill8582]

I wonder if James knows where this went, and if it could be tracked down?

[@h5mind373]

I'm sure the dealer would know, but that info may be confidential for the privacy of the new owner.

[@bill8582]

@@h5mind373 yeah, I just really liked it, it is very unique, and no cap on the front of the roof makes it even more so. I am looking at charter bus conversions now, as most Prevost are way out of my price range, this one was close to what I have to spend even though it is older, I just got excited when I saw it. No harm, no foul.😎

[@wphubert]

Looks so nice on the interior. If you think this is what you want, $50,000 will buy it. That will be your down payment, make sure you are ready to put another $50,000 to make repair/rebuild costs. Think of it as $100,000 then compare with other units.

[@k9advcru562]

I really doubt this bus would need that much for repairs. Those 8V71T screaming jimmy engines are the most reliable diesel out there. A new set of tires and a good mechanical inspection I bet you could get this bus rolling in perfect shape for less then 10k

[@wphubert]

K9ADVCRU My statement was not to say that it could not be used without an immediate $50,000 expenditure but rather to reflect a reality over the next few years. This also assumes that a new owner would not be do it yourself mechanic. However it is to point out that those who might think like yourself put tires on it and away you go are no being realistic. Every time you go to a proper bus shop for maintenance the bill will be in the thousands. Suspension and brake equipment will require replacement. This is a beautiful interior but is not useful if you are boxed in with running repairs which break your checkbook. Think of this as a 100,000 total cost and it should do well.
