I worked at Allison transmission on the V730 line for approximately 5 years. Those were very good reliable transmissions and that is why they were put in so many busses. Solid, built to last. Good to see one still going strong.
Well done. I would do a bus conversion if I ever wanted a Class A. Prices on new units are outrageous and at least the commercial buses are built safe and last.
I'm a 39yrs wanderlodge mechanic, I'll step back and say great work brother you did a great converson. Many miles ahead
They are such amazing people. Great set up and so much history. Love them!
I'm as proud of you as your self and wife great work
This is one of the best conversion I have seen. This 1965 charter bus looks brand new love the color!
I was a sight to see!
@@Down2RV - Mr Perry's coach shows his dedication to the bus conversion hobby, plus the incredible longevity engineered into these coaches when proper preventative maintenance schedules are followed. How many late '60's Winnebagos are still on the road fifty-odd years later? For that matter, how many factory Class A motor homes even survive 10 -20 years in service? The highway coach conversion community is in a completely different world than your typical RV owner.
What a fine bus conversion! Thank you to the beautiful couple for sharing a tour of their home. They must have hundreds of entertaining stories about their travels and about raising their children in a bus. Maybe they will share a few of them with us some time.❤
Cool bus!
It was super cool. I loved the car door locks for the cabinets.
@@Down2RV I would love to know exactly how he did that with the power door locks so I can 😂do it to mine when I start converting it next month. What an absolutely beautiful bus, both inside and out!! They definitely have something worth being proud of, that’s for sure!!
Question tho: since Mr & Mrs Perry raised their three children on the bus, have any of the children followed their lead by also getting a bus and sharing the joys of the lifestyle with their families or do they just use Grandma & Grandpas bus while thru are out and about?
I’m about to start my conversion of a 1982 MCI next month. I can’t wait to get it done and start enjoying everything if we can get some diesel fuel, lol. I’m probly buying the bus at the worst time but I don’t have a choice at this time and I’ll make it all work out!
Beautiful bus
Just found your video. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to your channel. This wonderful gentleman and his wife has obviously had many wonderful adventures in this beautiful bus. I wouldn't change a thing. It's just perfect.
We love them as much too! What an amazing story!!
That is so cool! My Dad and husband worked for GMC Truck and Bus Chicago zone back in the 60s and 70s!
We saw this bus pull in and it drew a crowd. Definitely a great find.
You did a fantastic job converting your bus. What a great way to travel.
Beautiful awesome 1965 w 1.5 million miles incredible
Love how your videos show not only cool destinations, but also interesting people and places local to where you are camped! Each we’ve seen have been fun and interesting to watch. The 1965 BUS to RV is a favorite.
We are trying to keep things mixed up but still related to our travels. Glad you enjoyed! We have so much more to edit and produce. We are just getting started! Thanks for watching!
Hugely impressive coach.
And so interesting!
LOOKS NICE AND HOMELEY . WELL DONE .
I have great respect for the bus conversation owners. I wish I have the mechanic skills I’d have one of these or a wanderlodge, but I don’t so I own a Tiffin Allegro Bus.
That is one gorgeous I sure would like to have something like that to live in😊😊😊
Beautiful
Newell builds their buses from the ground up and are as much a million mile bus as that GM.
Prevost builds are also built for millions of miles. Plus, they are built of stainless steel. The entire frame and superstructure is stainless. The late Charlie Daniels bought a new Liberty Prevost in 1989 and still had it at his death and it had over 2.5 million miles on it.
Liberty also gives a lifetime warranty for the original owners of their buses against squeaks and rattles. They kept Charlie's bus free of squeaks and rattles the entire time he had it.
Awesome
"Incredibly wonderful. We applaud you for saving that bus, as well as raising your children that way. You are all appreciated. And, RV guy, thanks for bringing their story to the world, to aide in making this a better place, in so many ways you have yet to realize. I'm here to save the world, etc , and this makes my job a little easier and more magnificent."™

Thank you. We really enjoyed bringing their story to the world. Very interesting and unique set up. Thanks for watching!
Wow beautiful 🎉
Greyhound has coaches that have that had a million miles about 3 years ago (2008 Prevost). Their older buses probably had 2-3 million maybe more. (MCI)
Very nice 4106. Hope to get mine looking like that one day.
One step at a time. These set ups are a labor of love. Hope yours proves to make as many memories as this one!
I've got a PD4106 I've driven all over the country. Sadly it was sideswiped by an 18 wheeler and while we managed to drive it home the damage to the skin was bad. It's been sitting up for about 15 years. Sad.
That is cool!!
Yes, he has a super unique classic conversion! It was such an honor for us that he accepted us to tour his bus!
Thanks for the tour of this bus! I believe @BusGreaseMonkey worked on this bus for this nice man. Very nice conversion. If you like that l, keep your eye out for a Wanderlodge, that’s what we have and it’s a great old motorhome!
We try and keep up with all of these. We will try and make more bus gatherings to keep bringing these interesting rigs to TH-cam!
very nice; if i had the skill set to convert one i would after seeing how nice this one is.
It really was turning heads when they pulled in. Crowds from the camp got so excited to see this beauty!
A Prevost bus will get that king of miles on the chassis! No bus goes that many miles without a rebuild engine and chassis parts replaced
Transverse mounted transmission....
Love Your Conversion Is Your Bus An Automatic Transmission Or A Manual Transmission?
He said they swapped out the original factory 4-speed manual to an Allison automatic.
Very beautiful bus ..if you ever want to sell let me know gorgeous and we’ll keep..
Was the roll out awning original?
No. It was added after.
V drive
Is it 4sale how much
Are they still alive today
I'd recommend BusGreaseMonkey to him if he ever needs any work done on this gem of a bus. I believe BGM is in Tennessee.
Did he say how many gears that Allison transmission has?
