1998 International Genesis Conversion (Family Adventure Machine)

1998 International/Navstar (3000?) Genesis Amtran Dt 466 7.6 L

Got suckered into buying a bus (by myself )

Kids love it! what 5 and 3 (and 29) year old boys wouldn't!!?

Hope to chronicle the conversion a bit over the next 18-24 months.

I sucked my family in. The wife just needed to hear "won't have to sleep on the ground" the kids (7 and 10) just had to hear "school bus"
I just had to hear "project".
Good luck and welcome.

I was stategic... initially I made her think we would live in it. Then she was happy to settle for only buying it ;) Thankfully this forum and pinterest exist so I was able to show some finished products to finally sell the idea!
