All Or Bussed! 1990 Chevy Shorty Bus

Hey all you fello skoolie-heads!
My boyfriend and I just purchased a 1990 Chevy short school bus in insanely good condition for an insanely good price.

We are not going into nearly as much depth with this project as most of you, simply because we are using it as a temporary rolling home for a travelin across the US journey. Here's the beginning, after a couple days and a few beers.


I'll uplaod more as we truck along...i mean bus along!

Re: All Or Bussed! 1990 Chevy Shorty Bus

Very nice! The body is almost the same as mine, but yours already has a tall ceiling! Not an easy thing to find on the shorties. I had to lift mine so I wouldn't be smashing my head against the ceiling
