The first bus conversion I remember seeing was a sceni-cruiser and was in
trailways trim. It was owned by a retired Lockheed engineer. The baggage
bays were fitted with ramps on both sides, and it carried a Meyers-Manx
dune buggy in the bays. The buggy had a folding windshield frame. The
interior was all diamond pleated aircraft aluminum, and naugahyde.
Absolutely flawless inside and out. It had twin GM 2 stroke Diesels in the
rear. Typical access to the drive train. Everything back in the engine bays
was either polished or chrome plated. No idea how much $$$$ was invested,
but it had to be a bunch.
