95 g30 ... input appreciated

[shorty #5]

Tried post earlier so may be a duplicate.

Hello everyone,

I did it! I joined you crazy, adventurous, and incredibly creative skoolie owners today. I bought a bus that has some emotional attachment to me ( and I just started building the freaking thing!).

My goal is to convert it into a tailgate/3 weeks a year RV .

It's a 95 Chevy G 30 gas 350.
A local school district was selling it and I bought it. The bus has been extremely well taken care of ( as in I don't think it had ever sat outside at night in its life) .

So I'm just starting to convert it and I would like your input! Any ideas are welcome.
I'm still trying to decide on flooring, heating and cooling, paint, and layout.

So I'm basically starting from scratch

Anyways thanks for your help

Painting

Got the bus painted! Used a paint sprayer and that was definitely the way to go. My paint however was aluminum based xo rust from true value and it's taking forever to harden. Anyone have any ideas?

Please tell me that bus isn't from the CHEYLIN, Kansas school district? Good looking bus, I'm in Colby, I'd like to see it close up and personal.
