You may have not done it, but gravity gave you a hand.

Good video. You definitely are paid by the job, not hours.

Watching that reminds me I have to visit Dentist.

So far on weekend # 2.

Finished stripping the interior except the floors.





Removed what I hope to be all the necessary rivets on the passenger side for a roof raise.





And one oops....



Wasn't planning on using these windows anyway, but my mom has dibs on them and I didn't want to break any. Oh well..if you're going to make an omelet...

Did everyone's rubber flooring break up in little pieces when they removed it or is mine just too old and brittle to roll up?

Mine was vinyl and came off in one piece. You're really getting so much done in such a short amount of time! Right now I'm working on the floor rust. Talk about a dirty job! When i finish for the day I'm covered in red rusty powder.

Is it possible to leave the windows in while gutting the interior or do you have to pull the windows out to get the panels off?

Not a bus owner yet, but from what I've seen you can leave the windows intact while removing panels and roof. The reason OP took the windows out is because he's planning on doing a roof raise which requires cutting the posts the windows are mounted to.

We took our windows out the day or so before the roof raise. Rest of the bus had been gutted for a while.
