A while back, Gary Blizzard stopped by Hemmings with his Scenicruiser.
Don’t know why, but old buses just turn all of our editorial staff into
six-year-olds. So when web dude Jeremy told us of a bunch more parked
about a block away, we had to inspect.
And boy, that’s a lot of Scenicruiser. Apparently, they’re part of a tour of Merrymakers, a bunch of self-described communal hippies just finishing up an East Coast tour with the buses. This one was their first, a combination of two different Scenicruisers.
UPDATE: Kit Foster wrote in to correct us – the bases are Aerocoach, like the one he posted at his CarPort website. The tops are Scenicruiser. I need to find a good bus reference.
And their third differs a bit – an old White on a modern International chassis with airbag suspension.
But the interiors of the Scenicruisers more resemble log cabins than the plush, cross-continent cabins several editorial staffers grew up with.
A lot of excellent wood- and leathercraft going on here.
