Re: Solar Furnace
You could put a row of those under the windows along the side of the bus and as long as that side is facing towards the sun, you'd be able to heat the bus pretty well.
Interesting idea.
Since the cans take up quite a bit of width, another idea may be to use either a half can (difficult to cut, though) or a row of copper tubing painted black. Shoot, for that matter, almost any thin walled tubing would work as long as it's: A) painted flat black, and B) covered by an air tight clear covering that traps the sun's heat in an insulating air pocket.
