Hello from Colorado

Hi all,

I just purchased a 1990 bluebird mini 32 seater. I'm hoping to make into a tiny home. Thus far, I have removed the seats and made temporary curtains. Open to any ideas or suggestions.

Morgan

Is your bus going to be full time home or part time?

Thanks Charles...

Yes, hasbeen, I am looking for full-time living. I plan to combo it with a shed that I can attach to when it's stationary and a full house when travelling if that happens. If I do travel, I will be bringing it your way most likely. I grew up in Osage City and most of my family lives in those parts.

I picked my bus up from Colorado, did you get any of the on demand tire chains or bigger engine horse power or other goodies?

I, for one, LOVE these minis and hope to see some more really great builds with them.
Keep us updated with lots of pics!

I agree cb, these have a nice look. I have seen a few on Craigslist that turned out real nice.
