Nice looking 4106. Cut my teeth and learned to double-clutch in that type during the mid-70's with a charter company that had a couple dozen of them... mostly old Greyhounds. I took leather work gloves with me on trips, just in case the trans jammed between gears and I had to pull over, open up the back and line up the shift arms on top of the transmission case. Wouldn't trade those times for anything... Good thing Scott said it's already spoken for, because I'd be thinking about how to talk my wife into it by now.
10K for it? That's a great value especially since it is in better shape and some proper repairs and fixing up will be a fantastic bus. No way I would sell the generator. Better it be there servicing the bus as it already does.
An original Illini Swallow Line bus! They had a route from Indianapolis to Danville,Illinois that came through Speedway, In where I live on Crawfordsville Rd. I have probably seen that very bus! Years ago they had Fixables on the same line.
Sounds pretty healthy, wish it wasn't painted, underneath looks pretty good considering it was probably a northen bus. Price is fantastic, and if were going to buy it, I would step up and have you guys do a few things while you had it there. Love the 4104, I think that's what I'd really like to have, one that was converted already would be a big plus, one with good clean skins, not pristine but nice, back glass still intact would be another plus.😎 I love this channel, I am learning a lot, and I'm an old dog lol.
Added a verse to the theme song lol, "Bus Grease mountain, where the runners all have been, I was gonna get me a bus some day, but I didn't know how or when..."
Ok Ok Ok ~. found this site a couple of weeks ago. Currently finishing a complete redo of an 01' Ranger. Lots of welding on a sketchy frame. Lots of rust, Coroseal, lots of new parts everywhere. I can not believe that I'm watching this. Like a trip to MARS. Wow. Nice calm explanation of needs and mitigation of problems. This will be my third check in. Fixing Busses? What what what? Just nuts. Thanks for sharing all of this. You have very special skills. You have my attention. ~ from New Hampshire.
Quote of the day - "Smells like old bus" Wiring certainly looks to be in need of a good seeing to, along with a few bits of the headlining etc. but in general the domestic side of the bus looks good.
That’s a pretty nice bus. Minimal rust. Most of the mechanicals are good, body overall is excellent. It appears to run good. The throw out bearing is a concern. The RV conversion has a nice comfortable and usable layout. It should clean up nice with a good scrubbing. The colors are definitely out dated, but the furniture looks to be in more or less usable condition. You could easily do a how lot worse than this bus for the same price. I myself would definitely do the spring brakes conversion, probably replace the old airbags and sway bar bushings. And do a full suspension inspection and service, full break inspection and service and make sure all the beds gauges and electrics work. And do a full engine, transmission and rear end service, along with a tune up. That would definitely be worth the added expense.
Love them Motor City Motors! I can rebuild all of the highway Detroits, have all the injector height gauges, and shims, and it you KNOW how to rebuild them, THEY NEVER BLEED A DROP!
Funny that Tyler should mention putting a 4-53 in that M37. I think the military did repower a handful with aluminum 3-53 Gamma Goat engines in an attempt to develop an Extended Service Life program for those trucks.
I really enjoy these videos! I'd like to know the year and model of the classic bus I'm watching when I'm watching them on TV. Sometimes the caption has that information when I comment on them on a computer, but I watch my UA-cam videos on a large screen TV. There are only three UA-cam video content providers I know of, Bus Grease Monkey, Motor Coach World and Andrew Steel. These are in very different spaces of the touring bus gamut. Camp Prevost on the family H3-45 and their family trips has been fun to watch as well.
1984 Eagle RV conversion for sale tomorrow right next to our farm here in Montana. Most of their toys were barely used, this says unknown miles. Earlier today online it was at $6,700. What's a realistic value? Auction site is Ophus Auction if you want to take a look.
@@h5mind373 It wasn't used much, not at all since 2000 or earlier, the Big cam 400 reman he had put in it for more power, likely didn't have 50,000 on it.
"Driving Mrs Rosie" across the front. I know someone who would have got a kick out of seeing that roll up. Wrong side of the pond unfortunately. I wish the new owners well.
Great buy. I’ve been on the hunt for a good bus. But I was leary about the inspection or lack there of. Would only trust The bus Grease monkeys evaluation
Miles have almost nothing to do with the quality or worthiness of a 4106. In actuality, the more miles (and maintenance) the better. The way these coaches were built, they are good for millions of miles. Sitting unused is the worst thing from them. The more they run, the better.
Are the 4106s pretty good buses? I've heard that they were the sports car of the GM line. Are there any weak spots I should look for? I have found one not far from me that has been sitting for quite some time, but they did get it running and said he drove it 500 mile round trip about 5 months ago hitting 75 to 80 mph. 8V71 standard shift just like this one, but not near as clean, but no paint on the skins, and all windows, has a cap on the back but was told window still there. Could probably get it for less than 10K, inside is filthy, but he did send videos of it running??? Still want a 4104 though.
I want it. It’s got a lot of sentimental value to him now. He knows who to call if he wants to sell it. He bought it off his brothers estate and he used to drive one in vietnam It is a project for him.
funny how ppl will jab bare wires straight into a plug cause their oddly to tight to shell out 4 bucks for a new one worse 6 for an adapter, then go on about other peoples work. .. run away
£10k here will get you a very poor 3500kg pile of rubbish, that bus needs work of course but you could go anywhere in it, fantastic value, not even including the genny.
Because that makes a huge mess inside the garage where the video of the suspension was shot. It's a hassle to remove the wheels outside. They're building an engine stream clean pit outside, maybe when it's completed they will start washing the suspension there, without removing the wheels.
Hello to all from Mexico city second home after the USA for 2 stroke Detroits! Love all the content and knowledge that is shared here!
Is it sold

Nice unit. 4106 was my favorite sports car bus to drive, back in the ‘70’s.

Really enjoyed that one Scott and co 🇬🇧👍
Hey that Dodge M-37 would make a great shop truck, you can't beat them

Wow, I haven't driven a 4106 in almost 40 years! Thanks for the video!
It does look like it could be something special!….Good video scott!👍🏿💯
beautiful bus lot of potential
Love them Motor City Motors! I can rebuild all of the highway Detroits, have all the injector height gauges, and shims, and it you KNOW how to rebuild them, THEY NEVER BLEED A DROP!
Beautiful bus it runs good nice paint job and will look good 👍😊.
Hello from Vancouver BC Canada 👍🤓🇨🇦
Hello
I would have to say if I was in the market for a 4106, I would be very comfortable buying it from you! This should sell quickly.
Love the sound of that Detroit
That woyld be sucha great base for my home on wheel dream!
ABSOLUTELY----> OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!. 🙂
Funny that Tyler should mention putting a 4-53 in that M37. I think the military did repower a handful with aluminum 3-53 Gamma Goat engines in an attempt to develop an Extended Service Life program for those trucks.
My wife and I wish we could afford something like that so we could travel but maybe one day
Wonder if the custom extension cord comes with the deal ⚡⚡
It’s only stupid if it don’t work right? 😂
Good example of a running gear inspection.
Nothing fancy!😵 I'd just about give my right arm for that fine bus except I couldn't shift it then. I like it.👍
I want a bus like this!! How cool.
Have you had a chance to look over the water tanks the gray tank and the black tanks?

Value depends on suspension status and if there is any rust on the bus.
Sold for $16,800. Looked very clean and well-maintained in the photos, but don't they always?
@@h5mind373 It wasn't used much, not at all since 2000 or earlier, the Big cam 400 reman he had put in it for more power, likely didn't have 50,000 on it.
Very nice! Needs to be saved! 10K is a very good price for that condition.
What's all the noise in the background? Is that the wind and a storm? Crazy! Nice bus! :-D
"Driving Mrs Rosie" across the front. I know someone who would have got a kick out of seeing that roll up. Wrong side of the pond unfortunately. I wish the new owners well.
That is one hell of a bus, convert it into a c amper and make some new memories it
Great buy. I’ve been on the hunt for a good bus. But I was leary about the inspection or lack there of. Would only trust The bus
Grease monkeys evaluation
Also looks like it's got fairly new front turn signal lenses - pretty rare nowadays!
Nice vidios👍
great vid!!
Luve the diesel sound. My oh my.
WOW @ 2:30 and Australian 240V power cord plug? That wire incidentally would have been in the earth.
Nice vehicle
Great bus! The real value is it wasn’t a high mileage Grayhound conversion

I like this Bus.
Plenty of vehicles for Hank and Wiley aka Hamilton Farm to start near the bus
Wow, what a steal!!!
That is one heck of a bus for a mere $10,000,..
Nice bus
My favorite channel!
I would buy it just for the ghetto blaster 👍🏿
I love vintags busses
Nice looking Old Girl..
I would love it, but my boss is hesitant. 🤔
keep the clips coming
really is just something about a Detroit. What is the oil change interval on them?
The buses you pick up do you sell any of them after you fix them up ky
..at 22:11 - is that a shadow or a crack in the plate to the left of the airbag?
I love your kind z
I'm looking at a pd4106 serial number 061 it was converted sometime in the late seventies do you plan on being in California anytime soon?
I THINK IS NICE AS IS . JUST TIDEY A FEW THINGS UP . . THAT ENGINE SOUNDS SWEET AS A NUT . INJOY
Excelente buss
Hi found a 1996 Mci9 in Marysville Michigan on marketplace $8,500.00 all the seats in place just passing this on to you .

Looks like a city of Duluth MN DTA from the mid 70s
That old jeep looks like it's from the series MASH
That guy sound like an Eastern KY fellow. Wolfe County maybe?
The bus looks like it's a 70s city bus that picked up passengers for the city
What year is it ? How many miles ? I know the speedometer is broken.
How should someone budget (ballpark) to have you get a bus like this in good operating order?
If I remember correctly, plan on adding 20k to whatever you buy. Source, old bus man Phil
wow!
Bus does not look too bad What year is it ?
How much and when can I pick it up?
Hey Scott, is the bus available? Been contemplating for the last couple months
Why people put carpet in an RV just boggles mind! Otherwise very cool rig! I'd love to convert a vintage bus! 8V71 all the way!
What is the slippery road lever on the dash do and why is it illegal?
It disables the front brakes so the don’t lock up and cause you to loose steering
Thanks, I learn something from all your videos. And now, I understand it we have muscle cars that LOCK up the front brakes for doing burnouts!!
what does the inside look like
try watching the video, duh.
How much is something like that worth
Where in the world are all of these buses sitting around at looking to be sold?
Usually something like….. 30 years behind that barn because it don’t run worth a darn….
Scott which Model of GM Buss is it and if this engine is V8 71
4106 8v71
Car Wizard should have bought this one
Is the M37 for sale? It was the pickup with no roof
1952 m37. No it’s not for sale
Part it out!
😊
If the one that wanted to buy it backs please let me know
There is a list already
WORST THING YOU CAN DO IS LEAVE ENEY THING ON GRASS .
Scott , what year is the bus
The front says 1965 PD 4106
😎💙👍
Fix his bus and take that M37 in trade!!!
I want it. It’s got a lot of sentimental value to him now. He knows who to call if he wants to sell it. He bought it off his brothers estate and he used to drive one in vietnam It is a project for him.
funny how ppl will jab bare wires straight into a plug cause their oddly to tight to shell out 4 bucks for a new one worse 6 for an adapter, then go on about other peoples work. ..
run away
£10k here will get you a very poor 3500kg pile of rubbish, that bus needs work of course but you could go anywhere in it, fantastic value, not even including the genny.
So
It’s sold rats
Too cheap, nice motor home, just a little work. I would pay double the asking price but i live in europe and no space over here.
It’s a great value. Still needs a lot to be beautiful but dependable good bones she has.
Shepard boxs suck
Better than power steering assist
why not power wash the sludge off the under carriage esp the suspension parts
Because that makes a huge mess inside the garage where the video of the suspension was shot. It's a hassle to remove the wheels outside.
They're building an engine stream clean pit outside, maybe when it's completed they will start washing the suspension there, without removing the wheels.
