We specialize in designing and building higher end
luxury Double Decker Coaches.
Ten years ago we wanted to create a Double Decker open top sight seeing bus
for the tourist market place.
It had to be built with durability and high quality but
yet have low maintenance
We
prototyped different chassis but were convinced there was only one way to go …
Our concept has always been quality but with a budget in mind ..
We Offer two models to work with,

Standard,

This is a Open top Double Decker with a lower roof design seating passengers for
upstairs only ..
No seating below.

The next model is a true Open Top Double Decker with two usable decks .

Our coach is a modified transit bus designed to carry 50 people
and will
seat some passengers downstairs in the event of rain .
This coach was designed around safety and has a very low center of gravity.
It was built to be used for many years with a light maintenance budget.
These buses are heavily built and are great candidates for our rebuilding
process.
What is a Rebuilt Coach ?
We remove, rebuild and replace all working drive train components.
Top of Page
Rebuild and install the more popular engines, transmissions, rear ends for that coach
.
Brakes, bearings, bushings,
the complete braking system, and
the air suspension is rebuilt too .
This bus when finished will drive and ride as a new one because that’s what
reconditioning is.
We take everything wearable and replace it with new or reconditioned components.
Our Units, Versus a
modified
Motor Home chassis,
Top of Page
We
looked into
new motor home chassis as others have.
However, we really felt there is nothing better than a transit passenger bus for
safety.
RV
Motor homes are designed to be used on a part time basis but yet there are companies
building these coaches on this same chassis.
They never last long and are plagued with maintenance issues
within the second
year .
A
motor home chassis is too light and the
duty cycle is too short to be used as a commercial Double Decker .
A Bus Chassis will
give you hundreds of thousands of miles of good service. See this page
about buying Commercial a
bus ???
A light duty motor home chassis is designed around 100,000 miles then it’s
replaced.
Some companies have used this Motor home chassis only to find themselves with an overweight issue with a factory recall.
In
one case, the City of New York required one company to park some vehicles until
they could be upgraded.
They were brand new but not designed properly.
Below are images
of our Destination Sign model ..
The next model will be Without the Sign.

was.
