My new (used) shuttle bus! (SC)

Alright so I owe a friend $3000 for this baby. 1992 Ford E-350 shuttle bus from a church on craigslist. Specs as far as I know:

7.5 liter engine (takes unleaded)
113k miles
New shocks, brakes, rotors, drums and tires

Pics:









Pics are from the craisglist post. Currently the seats are taken out and some of the metal fasteners have been removed from the floor. I got to drive her 40 minutes total the first day and she runs like a beaut. I figured 113k for a 23 y/o vehicle wasn't bad at all and I don't plan on driving her a whole lot the first four years I'll have her. I plan on converting it to a nearly completely self-sufficient RV complete with a solar panel setup and some kind of water system (maybe) and living in her through college. I'm looking to get a degree and a ton of money saved up out of this. I don't really know anything about vehicles let alone accomplishing something as ambitious as this so expect to see me a lot around here y'all.

I know. I figured it was appropriate since both called for an introduction and both were relevant.
