Wink Babe the blue bus introdution

Hello! My name is Sara and my boyfriend Joe and I have recently become owners to a 1999 Ford econoline e350. We found her on line and got a good deal on her. When we purchased her she was already converted with a wooden floor, cabinets, a bed frame, wood-stove (not installed), and some trimmings. I have attached some photos of Babe so take a look. We have a ways to go still; currently the sink isn't complete, we don't have any source of power besides the engine battery and extension cords and our storage isn't complete either. Please enjoy the pics and feel free to comment.

Nice bus, love that moulding in pic4. Any back story to it? Lots of time went into making it originally.
Thanks,


John

I dont know any thing about the construction done on the bus prior to purchasing. But I do love that little detail.
