Build assistance

I have a 1980 Gillig currently under conversion. Im looking to hire some help with the build. Im wondering if there is anyone that is close to Omaha, Nebraska who would be able or interested in this project. Or if anyone can point me in the right direction of someone or someplace where I can even take the bus and have it worked on. Its currently in a shop at the moment where my brother has been working on it but I need more assistance as having just one person is taking longer than expected...

Please clarify what type of assistance you want.

Mechanical?
Electrical? If electrical, the buses electrical, or the conversion (house) electrical? 110v, 12v, solar??
Building Out - Cabinets, beds, etc.

Cool bus by the way!

I would say a little of everything. lol

Mainly the conversion though. Some plumbing for the water tank placements and such. The electrical for the interior of the house portion. As well as framing out the interior which is not much obviously. I have the bed framed out in metal but need the plumbing for the bathroom and kitchen area. Figuring out what solar to go with still. I wanted to redo the driving area. Gauges etc...

Hmmmm, well, that's pretty much everything.

This might be a good resource.
