Funky conversion for sale in Colorado

Seen on Denver Craigslist searching for Dodge school buses: This skoolie doesn't have a Dodge under it (it's a Chevy) but it has a Dodge on top of it.

Guaranteed to make "RV snobs" wet their pants or no money back.

Way cool.
It reminds me of the vehicles in the book Rolling Homes.

I have a non working Chevy van. I often think of doing the van on bus thing.

Re: Funky conversion for sale in Colorado

As cool as I think that goofy stuff is, I would cry if you did that to your bus Accordian. I need to get a picture of a bus that was at a friend of mine's house. The owner had built basically a 3ft tall shed on top nearly the full length and width. It had a peaked roof with corrugated galvanized tin. If I remember right, they used old barn siding for it. They cut much of the original roof off on the inside, leaving some to sleep on, as an upstairs. It sure made the inside seem big.

I think it was brown. I have no idea on the cover shot. I was told some minister owned it, who belonged to a group of pastors that traveled around.

Fear not. It is highly unlikely that I would put a van body on top of my bus. I do not need the extra room. I also have no equipment or tools or money to do such a thing.

Re: Funky conversion for sale in Colorado

You wouldn't catch me in that bus unless it came with a hot little deadhead number. I could live with unshaven armpits but she would need to be showered.
