Reason for Sale

• We bought this bus brand new in 2019 and had it converted to a miniature gym. The bus had a weekly schedule to visit daycares, where the children would come out to the bus and take a lesson.  This was originally intended as a feeder system for our dance and gymnastic school, but 33 years and several buses later, it was time to shut it down.  Our daughter left the business to do her own thing, and as we have gotten older, it was too much to run both businesses.
• Since we planned on keeping this bus on the road for 20+ years, we incurred the additional expense of having the undercarriage treated with Rhino-type lining, which is an excellent corrosion resistance method.  The diesel engine, which should last 200,000- 250,000 miles, along with corrosion resistant body, should meet this 20+ year goal if properly taken care of.
• This bus is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to complete a build without undoing existing work.
