Looking For A Skoolie Know-It-All!

From what I've seen on this site - Skoolies are the coolest! I am working on a project about alternate lifestyles and would love to find someone (or someones) considered an outspoken authority on the Skoolie life, school bus conversion, mechanics, outfitting and everything else Skoolie. Please respond and let me know how to contact you or you can contact me. Promise I won't take up too much of your time - whoever you are.

Welcome to the gang. You will usually find that asking a question in the forums will get you several answers if it isn't tooooooo highly specialized......

Specifically, what do you want/need to know?

There are several people who post on a regular basis who are great at fabricating.

There are several people who post on a regular basis that are great at plumbing and electrical.

There are several people who post on a regular basis that have raised the roof of their bus.

There are some who post here fairly regularly that have lived in their bus full time for quite a while.

I have been in the bus business for 40-years. If it is yellow with black stripes I have either driven it, worked on it, owned it, or sold it.

If you post specific questions you will get better answers.

Good luck on your project.

This site is full of know-it-alls. I think you might have come to the right place, but what would I know.

"Everyone you meet knows something you don't." Think about that...it's true. Might be something trivial but it's still something you don't know.
