Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

if you keep the bus or do the party bus gig you need to know where the fiance stands on your being out "working" and party favors, some women's attitudes change once they have a ring on your finger.

Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

Everyone has a stetch hummer,
The engine appears tobe in excellent
seven emergency esape windows.
simply finds its way out of hte bus through drain holes

these are a few i found.
also i think it would be worth investing a little money in new steering tires, sound way better in the add to say brand new or almost new steering tires then end of their life steering tires, specialy if you want 25k out of it. I would.....

Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

its' maintenance, not it's

gauges, not guages

"running the Jacuzzi as well as..." not "running both the Jacuzzi..." (because you mentioned more than two things)

GFCIs trip in 40/1000ths of a second, not 1:40,00th.

Hey, you asked

Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

I'll make sure to tell her.

The bus didn't sell in the first couple days like JBII, but she's up to $5,000 and the high bidder looks to be a limo company. That is my target audience. I'm so impatient! I can't wait to see how it ends.

Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

It took about 2 quarts of blue to paint the interior of the bus available from wildfire fx for about $50/qt. the color is use is deep blue

http://www.wildfirefx.com/wfi/amazin...ent5=undefined

the uv lights come from wal-mart for about $10 each. someimes it's difficult to find them until they put out the halloween stuff. they are 110 vots, but very low amp draw.

Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

Just my opinion here but i read you asked for comments on the ebay ad.
It seems that one picture of random girls enjoying the jacuzzi would be sufficient. I almost didn't look at the ad because the first picture thumbnail is of a tattooed back not of the bus i was interested in.
anyway good luck with the bus and let us know if you were able to sell it locally.

Re: Jacuzzi Bus V

i stumbled onto an old guy named Bim that used to live in his bus. now he owns 40 acres and puts on events like concerts and the like. here are some photos from this weekend. I took a tour of his old bus, which is broke down and has been parked for a very long time....I will take photos of his bus next time i'm out that way. Bim thinks i should bring my bus back and charge people to go inside.

it was a rough weekend, but somehow i survived!
