Re: Journey Begins - 1988 Crown Conversion

Beautiful bus. Crowns really are works of art. Shame that the government is subsidizing their extinction.

I don't have a problem with LP, but, it ain't my bus. I could see how going all electric...

Re: pickup truck frame rust prevention

i've heard bad things about bedliner used in this application. that if it gets a nick in it, it will actually trap the moisture inside and it will spread worse.

Re: Big single cylinder motorcycle engine?

If you want people to actually be able to hear the piano, electric drive is the way to go. The golf cart motor should work fine. You can put plenty of batteries under the bench. Strap the honda...

Re: My wife's car blew up...

i know a guy with an old escort 5 speed. Claims he can get mid 40s on the highway. Parts should be cheap as well. The VW diesels get ridiculous mileage, but, command a premium price. Also consider...

Re: looking for consultants

Kinda sounds like you might be too busy to do the work yourself. If this is the case, the most practical thing to do would be to find one that's already converted.

Good luck.

Re: Keeping food in my bus this winter.

what they said^^^^.

A can may or may not have flexibility enough to survive freezing, but, if they do, you probably won't want to eat what's in them next summer.

Re: Impressive MPG -- why?

How long before those fancy shmancy new buses with the 29 speed computer controlled trannies get to be old enough to pick up cheap?

Re: Swinada's Bus Conversion progress...

Re: Time to eco-mod the Caprice.

A duramax caprice would be awesome. Trouble is, you'd have to drive it a few bazillion miles to recoup the investment. I doubt the 4.3 would pick up much mileage and it's not near as good an engine...
