Anyone familiar with this Prevost?
« on: November 30, 2024, 10:46:37 AM »
Is anyone familiar with this Prevost?  A young couple parked next to me in SoCal bought it this week and wondered if anyone knows anything about it.  They said it was previously called the "Silver Bullet".  The rear wheel wells look unusual to me, and I am wondering if this design if from the Factory or was a conversion modification.

Chad had it for sale at Premium Coach in Mesa AZ ( Gilbert), the covers was added he talked about removing it when I was there it comes off to change the tires on the tags ,I think it was converted by Millenium in FL for a motor cross bike rider, they can call him he may have more information, it has a huge side out that was added one would not want to buy that piece of glass  ,the painted Stainless siding why they did that is beyond me it takes away a lot from the bus

Thanks for the info Cliff.  He did say it was converted by Millenium and did mention the bike rider. He seemed to think the bus was well known, but he himself doesn't know much about it.  I thought maybe the tire covers came off. I am not sure why they would have added that. I don't see that it adds to the aesthetics of the bus.  I assumed the slider was added.  A friend of mine had a slide added to his Prevost that looks very similar. With his bus, you wouldn't even know there were slides in his bus, unless you saw them out.
