In the meantime if anyone wants a lifted, low mile bus with air ride and high headroom hit me up. I'd part with this bus as is for ONLY $10,500.
That includes the motorhome title and seat removal. For an extra $500 I'll strip and paint the floor.

Is that your shorty?


eta: Duh. this is in your shorty build thread, so I'm guessing yes. Soooo tempted but it's a bit more than I've currently got.

Did you ever get the handicap lift out? I keep thinking I want to build a lift gate out of one for the back of my bus.

SO- I really want to paint this bus. Does anyone nearby have any experience with paint jobs on big stuff? I want to do stripes, maybe some sort of design.
This aesthetic stuff is not my forte. Dredman- you busy these days?
Anyone know how I could play with colors and designs with an image of my bus?

And every time I have the energy and wherewithal to get some work done on my own bus it rains like a MOFO!

No biggie, today we have a game to watch. The Bhoys in Green take on Ross County at home in Paradise. Starts in less than an hour. Bout to put on my Hoops top and roll a fatty!




I hope to capture some of that Celtic spirit with this bus, when I finally get around to painting it.

The folks at the CSC pub are super excited to see a green n white Hoops bus. We went yesterday to watch the League Cup final against our rivals. We didn't even play very well and we crushed them.


I really need to get this thing painted. Anyone in Fl good at paint job layouts? I want to do something cool but I'm not too creative when it comes to that kinda stuff.

Took a ride last night in Native's bus. WOW. What an amazing machine. Air ride seats, air helper springs up front. Smooth, quiet.
Theirs is an 11 window version of ours. The dynamat and comfy seats etc really make it nice.

Got the money together to re-roof our house. If anything is left after than I'll put some love into the bus.

Gonna go tomorrow or tues and get a bucket of oil so I can do a change on this beast.
Also planning to take it out for the day and top off the fuel.

I may go ahead and drive it on over to the swarm in Feb. Its such a cool bus, and last year I came in a subaru.

Would be cool to bring your bus! We'll be there in the TC2000, the A3RE is way behind schedule!
