Picked up our bus this week. A 1999 Bluebird All American with 24 valve cummins, Allison MD3060, air brakes, 37' long flatnose. Previous owners had already removed the seats and done the floor/walls/ceiling demo. They also had framed the side walls, started to put sheeps wool insulation up, started to rough in the wiring. They had also removed the orig bus windows and replaced them with RV windows and filled in with sheet metal. Painted the top white and entire bus grey.
Lots of work to do to finish this, but its a great place to start, we're super excited to get going on it.

Congrats! Ewe got a fine looking bus there - looks like it's in good sheep. Have you been thinking about diving into the bus thing for a wool now, or did you fall into it by shear coincidence?

Haha seriously now, congratulations!
