New skoolie



Ive been looking for a couple years now and finally got my bus yesterday. T444e, Allison 2000 series, 128k miles. It has 1 small dent on rear corner and is missing the driver side power mirror, these are the only problems I've found. Drives good. Cruises at 65 real nice.

Nice bus. I so love the roof and lines of the International/AmTran buses.

I think my biggest challenge is going to be figuring out how to incorporate my rc plane storage into the floor plan.

Welcome

Looks like a twin to mine (2003), what are your plans for it?

Roof raise. Paint. Remove bus windows and new metal over the openings install rv Windows. I want a mostly open floor plan will mostly be me and my wife camping. I go to rc plane events a few times a year and we just like camping adventures. Planning on full bathroom facilities as well as full cooking facilities. That's about all I have right now. Don't really have any details yet. I have a remodel project going on my house right now that I have to finish before I start on my bus. Otherwise I may have to live in the bus! Ha ha. I have been looking for 2 years now for a re bus to come up for sale at a local school district and it finally did.
