What to Look for When Buying Classic Prevost Bus Conversions: 1999 Liberty Classic

After finishing a number of inspections on Tiffin Allegro Buses, I was asked to inspect a 1999 Liberty Classic Prevost XL bus conversion for Sewell Motorcoach. To my surprise, I think this might be the first "Classic" Liberty and it's not an "Elegant Lady." But I think I like the Classic better just because it has rocker switches and not the multicolor push buttons of the Elegant Lady.
At any rate, this is a crazy beautiful motorcoach and I knew I needed to share what every bus should look like after 25 years of proper love and caretaking. It is very obvious to me that the many previous owners took pride in thier stewardship of this bus.
Don't forget to follow @Sewellmotorcoach for Doug's video on this 1999 Liberty Classic and to see his much better videos :)
This 1999 Liberty Classic has about 102k miles and is being sold for $199,999. Please contact Doug or his crew at the link below with any questions.

Thanks for watching!!

  • I drove Prevost and MCI for 10 years in the 80s I would pay 200gs for that over any new rv that they make these days, they are built to last not built as cheap as you can get it out the door,great video!

    • So, I can find a 90s Prevost bus conversion like this, pay $90,000 for one that needs work, and you'd buy it for $200,000 all because of the chassis...Sweet

  • I really think the conversations from yesteryear are prettier that the new ones. Of coarse my H3-45 is a 2006 so I could be bias. But the Prevost difference can not be ignored they really are built to last a lifetime if you love it properly.

  • Great inspection of a beautiful motorcoach. Was surprised at first at the lack of roof air but then realized of course it is a Prevost with the under bus air. Thanks James

  • Horns are Hadly .I have a 40 year old set. Been through vans, trucks, now my coach. Taken care of they are perfect. That search light is nice when pulling into a strange park, at night. Alone. Wonderful old coach. Will outlast you and me. That bud air mileage is nothing. That is a million mile coach

  • Super flamboyant bus. Hell naw, mirror city. See yourself all over the place. As you look around you think to yourself; " where am i?" And you answer yourself outloud; " oh there I am!!!" on the ceiling, on the walls. I am mean seriously, the bus is a narcissist dream. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Your enthusiasm is fun to watch. Your 1001 facial expressions. And, trying not to be rude during the walk though 😁

      @SpykersB@SpykersB5 ай бұрын

  • James, with your platform, I feel you should let the folks know that these older luxury coaches may have Cruise Aires or “Basement Air.” Why is that important? Because they’re out of business and getting replacement parts is extremely difficult and getting more so every day. This should be disclosed by every seller. To buyers, you’re better off looking for a coach with roof top AC units.

  • I really dislike slideouts. Really seems like more of a liability and failure point than a benefit. Unless you're just parking your RV 99% of the time, in which case, buy a lot and put a house on it. They compromise structural integrity, their design incorporation hurts or destroys the utility of the entire unit while under way, and they're a complicated set of moving parts prone to failure, not to mention leaks. But it really doesn't seem like you can find modern busses without them. There seem to be a few class Cs available without them, but not many.

  • Awesome bus conversion, only thing that scares me is almost 25 year old “rubber” gaskets etc in the engine and problems on electronics usually means replacing the entire “system” since parts usually do not exist…electronics age like milk.
