Help identifying a bus--admin please delete if not allowed - fwtx2002 - 08-29-2018

I'm eyeing a bus that looks very similar to a Newell but it's not a pusher and the headlights/running lights are slightly different. I've had zero luck finding any info. Any experts/historians in the group? Supposedly made by Columbus Cruiser Mfg in Columbus, OH. 1970 motorhome on a 31' chassis with Ford 330 v8 engine.

no issue on asking questions here....(i own the forum). I am not familiar with it though i did see a picture of one when i searched and it does look like an older newell. hopefully someone will have some info for you.

I think you might have found a very early “Custom Coach Corporation” conversion.  They upfitted many MCI & Prevost chassis and many are still in service.  I found this bit of info on their history:
