    Is the $100,000 price tag for a NEW paint job or re-painting an older bus?

    When Dean re-paints a coach, does he remove ALL of the old paint down to the fiberglass or s.s.?

    I would love to see one of his paint jobs in person.

    Tuga I think you should schedule one of his paint jobs so we can see what they look like! If you would feel more comfortable knowing the outcome, you can have my bus painted. Use that credit card!

    Did you guys ever notice: Pete is always trying to get me to spend money!

    It's sad when the paint job costs more than the coach is worth!!!!

    In this market, I don't think I could sell my Newell for $200K! That's why I'm keeping it.

    Tuga- ask Coach Worx for a quote - they gave me a very good estimate.

    I understand that Liberty's cost from Prevost for paint was around 40K and TAODs additional cost is around 50K,if you see his paint I think that most customers would agree that it is a no brainer that Deans product is worth that and more.

    I saw the Foretravel H-45 at the Tampa show. If I passed it going the other way on the interstate, it would be called a Prevost. It is probably the best other mfg. Prevost look alike I've seen.
    The pictures above show a little of the Liberty display which was over the top, with a running water feature. Once inside there carpet area seating was available to relax and admire the buses.
    Liberty did a very nice presentation of there product to prospective buyers.

    i have not seen any photos of the engine compartments on the Prevosts. I'm assuming they are all Volvo now.
