2010 chevy express 3500 6.6 duramax

Well we've made rather slow progress. I bought her in November. The floors are just giving me the worst time getting up. So I'm going to wait until the man is home from work and the holidays are over to finish that part but here's my bus! And a few other pics of what we're facing lol

We went camping after we drove from 15 hours from Colorado to Texas and will be converting it over the next 14 months. She drove awesomely for close to 20 hours before the CEL popped on. Just was for a glow plug thankfully. So I am going to also fix that and change the fuel filter hopefully in the next few weeks! Any advice is welcome too! Or name suggestions! Haha

Also if you have any suggestions on treating some of these pesky rust spots on the back door and under the back window I'd love to hear em.

Similar make and model

Greetings,

My Corbi-Hab bus is a 1999 GM 3500 with the 6.5 diesel and 145 k. The big difference is that it was built as a wheelchair school bus, so it has the large lift door and a flat floor. I spent a long time removing the flooring and dealing with the Q-straint system. If I may, consider whether the plywood really needs to be taken up. The rubber mat is relatively easy to pull up.
