I lost track of what day it is but I have 22 days 13 hours and 9 minutes until I leave. My buddies and I have been working as much as we can. Its hard for all of us to be there at the same time because two of them work 10 and 12 hour days in factory. Another guy and I work Mon - Fri. So I'm not working alone. Since the last update We got a table put in. We recycled two of the better looking seats. It wasn't too bad. We only had to drill two new holes and we used the existing mounting hardware to put it in. We also put in a couter top
We scheduled our appointment for this saturday to get our bus painted primer grey. We can always paint it something else later down the road, but this will get us on the road. It will no longer be "national school bus yellow".
More updates. Hitch came in last night. Window tinting came in. Flushed coolant one more time. We got a newer used tire for the Driver side rear inside. The mechanic said it was fine but probably needed replaced because of the cracks. We also got the front driver side tire swapped out. total cost was 195 out the door. 30 bucks to swap a tire and 150 for a used tire. So now we have two spares if something happens.
My neighbor owns a couple businesses. One of them is a plumbing business. He stopped by and offered to help with finding us a toilet with a step and getting us some pex tubing. I have used pex in my house and was really easy. I just need to think of an idea for tanks. I really enjoyed watching Bob Dorris Jr Youtube videos and think i will copy him and his entire bus.

One more update. I covered the flashing lights. They are tinted really black. I would like to buy clear covers in the future. and take the relays out. I know there is a thread on here somewhere but for time sake, I will leave them tinted.
