The 1998 Prevost Marathon XL was originally used by the actor during his Hollywood career. This includes his time working on Two and a Half Men.
The bus later found new life with musician Tim Montana, who bought it from Sheen in 2021 and used it while touring.
Infamous 12-Day Bender Tour Bus Once Owned By Charlie Sheen Heads to Auction
Originally designed as a mobile dressing room, the bus has since been transformed into a fully equipped rock tour vehicle.
Montana renovated the interior to include six bunks for himself and his bandmates, along with a range of modern upgrades.
The bus now features two bathrooms, a refrigerator, a trash compactor, and a two-burner cooktop. It also includes a TV, two air conditioning units, and plush red couches.
The vehicle has now been listed for auction, with bidding starting at $5,000.
Its colorful backstory has only added to the intrigue, with Sheen recently opening up about its origins.
Now 60 years old and more than eight years sober, Sheen revealed that the idea for the bus came during his time on the set of Major League II in 1994.
He noticed that fellow actors had private dressing areas. Some were even using their own trailers or buses.
Actor Recalls Designing Bus During Chaotic Period
After initially renting buses, Sheen decided to go all-in and design his own from scratch.
He traveled to a factory in Eugene, Oregon, following what he described as a particularly chaotic stretch.
"I showed up there hammered, like on a frickin' 12-day bender and I was seeing this porn star at the time, and I'm like, 'Hey, I've gotta go design a bus. Wow, 8 o'clock got here fast,'" Sheen said on Loudwire Nights with Chuck Armstrong.
"I got this call like months later, 'Hey, your bus is ready.' Now, I've got a clear mind and the thing pulls up, and I walk inside, and I'm like, 'Whose idea was this?'"
The finished bus ended up resembling a Los Angeles bar. It was complete with a flashy interior that reflected the lifestyle Sheen was living at the time.
Ironically, by the time the bus was completed, Sheen had already entered rehab, making the final result something of a surprise when it finally arrived.
