$29,900 school bus conversion / Lebanon MAINE / 2 bedroom / off grid

Lebanon MAINE - Hello! We have a driving and running 2001 GMC school bus with a powerful Caterpillar 3126 turbo diesel engine that we converted to a home. It's Solar powered. Has a rustic style. Also it features an on board fresh water sink, bathtub, composting toilet, LP stove, refrigerator, and propane heat. It's insulated with spray foam insulation. And did well this past winter. Call or email with questions.. It's set up for a small family currently. Certain aspects of the drive train and whatnot would probably need attention if long distance driving was desired. Sorry for the sideways pictures. My number is 207-233-4477 or message me. ddavidhensel@gmail.com

I would edit picture in any photo editing software. The usually have button looks like turn to left and right sign. Mac would be photos software.

Just to clarify: there are no known issues with the drivetrain. And there are 2 bedrooms that will sleep 5 people.

There is a very simple fix for the sideways pictures--no special software required.
  1. Open the folder on your PC where you have the pictures stored.
  2. Right click on a picture, (or the pictures file name) and select open with / Windows photo viewer
  3. After the picture opens in the windows photo viewer look at the bottom near the center and you will see two round arrow buttons. Clock wise and counter clockwise. Click either to orient your picture correctly.
  4. Close the photo viewer and it will prompt you to save, select yes and your picture is now saved in the original folder in the correct orientation.
  5. Repeat for the rest of the pictures.
Hope that helps.
