I've been lurking around for a few months, but it's time to make things official. I bought my bus from
PublicSurplus.com back in April for $3,000 and have been working on the conversion over the past 2 months. It's "just a camper" so I'm not going to install water tanks or any kind of toilet for now. The maiden voyage will be to the Great Smoky Mountains in TN to see the solar eclipse in August.
Completed:
- Seats removed
- Rubber floor removed
- Stop sign & bus insignia removed
- Subfloor prepped
- Heater removed
- Painted inside & out
- Vinyl floor installed
- Battery replaced
- Seats reinstalled
- Speakers installed
- Stereo replaced
Still left to do:
- Take the old seats to the dump
- Install interior battery bank & converter
- Build slide out futon
- Build kitchen counter w/sink
I wouldn't have been able to come as far as I have if it weren't for the resources & advice I found here, so thanks for everything!
