![]() ![]() I work on it when the weather is nice, which we have not seen in our area since October. Our Sprinter is, at the moment, an incomplete shade-tree project. And at $27,500 from the seller in North Branch, Michigan, it isn’t a huge price of entry for an old bus that at least on the surface, won’t need a major overhaul right after purchase. I have no doubt that this is in better condition than some of the new RVs that I’ve seen and way better than one of my parents’ travel trailers. This bus is in such good shape that its paint shines. It’s not a walk in the park keeping a giant bus in good shape, so I’m not surprised that many of these old rigs are rusty with peeling paint. I’ve reached out to the seller for more information and will update when I hear back.Įven with the lack of information on this unit, color me impressed. I’ve seen old buses upgraded to Detroit Diesel or Cummins power, so I’d expect something like that. The seller doesn’t say what this engine is, but it’s paired with an automatic transmission. However, this one has been given a new diesel engine. Looking around the back, the unit appears to have an air-conditioner, a tow package, and an older backup camera.įrom the factory, these buses often came equipped with a 320 cubic inch Buick straight-eight gasoline engine. You get plenty of seating and counter surfaces, too. It’s dated, sure, but it appears to be in good condition and of decent quality. The bus also has running water and what appears to be a full bathroom. No details are given about the camper conversion, but you can spot a three-burner stove, refrigerator, and microwave. Making it look like a luxury hotel might make it jarring. Remember, this bus is a whole 82 years old. This interior isn’t modern like yesterday’s Champion Ultrastar, but that may be a benefit here. The exterior certainly looks the part and the interior is just as good. The seller does say that the bus has been refurbished in a tasteful manner that maintains the integrity of the unit. This unit has been repainted and after a lot of searching, I’m not sure if it’s based on any real livery. According to the bus lovers of the Canadian Public Transport Discussion Board, these were in use with at least two dozen bus lines in the United States alone, with more going to Canada. The seller of this 1941 Flxible Clipper doesn’t give us much information about its history. We’ve featured old Flxible Visicoaches a couple of times before, but neither of those presented in the condition that you’re about to see today with this Clipper. ![]() I’ve been striking out on New Look finds and instead I’ve been finding other pieces of history, like that low-floor coach. But that hasn’t stopped a girl from dreaming. Since then, the ones that I’ve found for sale were either rustbuckets, non-operational projects, or just outrageously expensive. I wrote about a ridiculously cheap New Look at the lighting site and I really think that I should have bought it. If you haven’t noticed, lately I’ve been on a search for my unicorn: a GM New Look bus. This piece of transit history needs a new home and it’s not even that expensive. Even better, someone converted it into an RV and gave it modern diesel power. Despite about 82 years on this planet, this 1941 Flxible Clipper looks like it rolled right out of a museum. $2000 off Appraised value.I’ve come across an old bus that has blown me away in how good it looks.
