1968 MCI-7

Year: 1968
Make: Motor Coach Industries
Model: MCI-7
Engine Type: 8-71 Detroit Diesel
Transmission: 4 speed Manual
Age: 48 Years
Overall Condition: good
* Bus has MCI-8 Cap on front.

$19,000

Maintenance : Bus has sat for over 30 years. Since it’s been with me. I would run it at least once a year and take it on a drive to make sure everything was good.  The oil in the engine is clear. The Bellows still hold air for about three days. Engine started immediately in March of this year!

History: The bus did not go into Greyhound service.
It was purchased by a country music person named Bobby Borchers.
He used it to carry his band and the 12 KW diesel generator was able to light up and do the sound system for his remote performances in the countrysid

Very low mileage – never in Greyhound service—it was made for band transport.
It has an 8-71 Detroit engine (started instantly after a year of inactivity), a 12kV diesel generator (less than 600 hours), three AC units, a restroom, a kitchenette, a microwave, a refrigerator, 9 beds, holding tanks, and a full electrical setup (it was used at open venues).

Mileage is only estimated. Bus purchased from Bobby Borchers, a country music star from the ’70s. The bus’s overall mechanical condition is good. 
Mileage: less than 3000 (My dad installed a hub odometer when we left Santa Barbara. That shows all the mileage, including the trip from Santa Barbara to Idaho.)

The vehicle will probably need new tires because they’re old. It definitely will need some interior maintenance, but not badly. It truly would be a great vehicle for a band that travels.
