40 ft Converted Transit Bus/Motorhome (not land)

1982 Converted 40' Gillig Phantom Transit Bus/Tour/Motor home/Tiny home/Air Bnb

This bus was originally an Olympia City Transit bus.
It was then purchased by Green Tortoise (remember them?)
and equipped with a new diesel engine and refurbished.
Green Tortoise decided to exclusively run school buses and sold it to the previous owner.
The previous owner converted it with quality appliances and equipment and toured with his family.
I purchased and lived in it while I looked for my current home/farm and no longer need it.
It was great for me. I lived in it with a partner and 2 kids!
I would love to see it go to a good home.

It is freeway/ touring / or tiny home ready. Top speed is 64 MPH!

A basic 40' Gillig Bus in average shape runs around $20K to $30K. The previous owner put 36K into it.

I am willing to sell this already converted bus for $28K in order to move it.

Serious Buyers Only.
