48 flexible Looks like original untouched exterior and very old 70s conversion inside that is just as untouched vintage material as the exterior. Probably the blue was done at some point but the skins r all original untouched.

Nice bus Joe. If I ever win the Lotto (which I seldom buy a ticket) I would love to have an old Senicruiser converted. Awesome looking bus.

Nice. Ive seen a couple around here in the last few years. What did the engine compartment look like.

Thanks for the pictures Joe. That Bus looks to be in great condition. Is it for sale ?

Speaking of beautiful old buses. Many of our POG old timers will remember Ben Wilmore "Where's Ben" who was/is a Photoshop Guru along with being a fascinating character. Ben sold his Prevost a few years ago and we sort of lost track of him.

Once bit by the bus'in bug it's pretty hard to stay away from it for long and Ben is proof of the adage. He is restoring a beautiful 1963 Flxible and has documented the project in his uniquely professional style on Facebook and his own website. Beverly and I visited our old friend and artistic bus converter Larry Oberfael in Coburg, OR a few months ago and saw this project for the first time. I was surprised to learn that the bus belonged to ex-Pogger Ben Wilmore. Ben could not have picked a better qualified bus restorer than Larry at Paradise Coach. The restoration is progressing nicely and the end product will be gorgeous. Here is a link to Ben's website. http://digitalmastery.com/creativecruiser/ Nice work Ben!

Joe, that's a great looking bus. How cool would it be to drive that one down the byways?

Was not for sale bummer, didn't open the engine doors should have and Ben still has his Liberty. I pulled the generator out of it last summer in upstate NY.
