They drove 8 hours both ways to pick her up, but this bus was worth it.

What They Converted This Old School Bus Into Is Simply Awesome. I Want This Thing So Bad.

I don't see "Good News Bus" on the members list anymore, maybe the build was dumped during one of the transitions or crashes.

They also had a blog that duplicated the build. The site at School Bus RV Conversion Skoolie Project - Good News Bus is still up, but I didn't check to see if the build pages are there.

I like the GN bus, but there are several elements of it that I cringe at...

So "Good News" wasn't in the screen name. My memory failed me.

To quote former US Vice President Dan Quayle, "It's a terrible thing to lose one's mind."
