Figured it's time for an update!
I've made some pretty good progress on the interior since my last posts.
I've made a couple trips with the bus this year, and it was quite obvious that the interior, although it worked, was not very refined.
I added a copilot seat out of an old junkyard f250. It slides forward and out of the way, which was a big plus!
Inside storage was very limited, so I added some old rv cabinets to give us some more space.
Found a futon that fit perfectly, both as a couch and as a bed when folded down.
You can also notice the patch job over the seam of the old and new bus sections.
I've got the trans-air installed, but not wired and plumbed. I think that job is going to be quite time consuming if I do it correctly, but I haven't dug into it too far.
Also installed a speaker in the cabinet - definitely won't shake the bus, but it helps to drown out the engine noise as we drive.
Lastly, I've added runners that cover the jagged cuts along the side of the bus, and helps to distribute the load of the truck.
Brake lights/tail lights/clearance lights have also been installed.
And of course, putting the bus to work for once instead of play.
