The New Guy

Hello everyone I am totally new to the schoolie craze literally sweeping the whole country. Well I did it finally got it done bought a bus.Not as easy as you would think. I am someone looking to build the ultimate Schoolie to one day retire and travel the North American Continent.
As a fireman I have been accused of “over building and designing, but I don’t mind. Was taught to do it right the first time.
I recently purchased a 2007 CE300 IC school bus here in the Denver area. DT466, Allison 2500 trans, Telma driveline brake, wabasto heater, air ride. Let the adventure begin, Seats out in 6 hours, made simple conversion, insurance done temp plates now for vin inspection and an emission test.
I really enjoy the website for advice and knowledge
Thank you everyone that I have learned so much from
I will keep you posted to my progress and design ideas

Bus Name

I was playing with words today and came up with a strong possibly
“Cool Schabin Bus”
School Cabin Bus mixed
Any thoughts
The other was Dawg House as it will be mine as I get sideways with my wife over the obsession of this project as others around the house get put on back burner
