Sweet! You got a short bus, now you can drive Dustin around!!

 

[CHOP SHOP]

Oh ****! Drunk parade at holiday lights!! Look out spanaway park!



You should call it the baconbus.:haha:

 

[dirtygoat]

Think I'm gonna paint the yellow the same color as the Blazer and touch up all the black...

Might paint Dirty Bus were it says School Bus...:redneck:


Gonna gut it out, make sure everything is up to par then start towing with it...

I'll build it on the inside along the way...

Plan on building a Master Bedroom in the back, a toilet room, small galley, dinette, futon, awning, outdoor shower, fold down deck in back and a small wood stove inside for heat...

To start with we can use the port-a-potty, air mattress and camp chairs inside...

 

[johneymav]

Jesus Luey, you and your tow rigs

 

[JAWS]

I thought you couldnt be 500 ft from a school. I guess a bus doesnt count.:fawkdancesmiley::haha:

 

[zukkev]

Damn, judging by this pic, this thing'd meet the width restriction of the Rattlesnake!!!:haha:
Seriously, Cool score---:awesomework: Gonna definitely take some getting used to driving---you sit waaaaayyyy out front of the steers!!!!:redneck:

 

[jimijam19K]

I threatened my wife with a school bus conversion...then she threatened me with being single again :redneck:

 

[jimijam19K]

honestly though that wheel chair lift will come in handy...not sure what for but it's gotta be good for something.

Thats for when your too drunk too climb the stairs. :redneck:

 

[Rennurder]

Do you know what (if needed) has to be done as far as licensing a school bus as an RV??? Does it (will it) need to pass some sort of inspection and need to be put in a certain RV class??? I've always wanted to convert a school bus!!

 

[cisco]

Damn hippies!

Lawyer in Gran Torino: don't chop-top the roof like one of those beaners, don't paint any idiotic flames on it like some white trash hillbilly, and don't put a big, gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipperheads' cars. It just looks like hell.

Sweet bus :redneck::redneck::redneck::redneck::redneck:

For the record I have been so drunk I've fallen up a flight of stairs.

I'm thinking I might move it to the back door and rework it for the fold down deck off the back...:redneck:

Pretty simple, you need 3 things to make it an RV... Shitter, cooker and sleeper... Doesn't have to be nice, just functional...

Take it to WSP to get inspected($65), pay for the title to be switched from commercial bus to RV($125)...

That's after you've already titled it in your name...

It made since to me, I can't afford to buy an RV that has a diesel and the frame to handle towing... And didn't want to deal with a truck and camper... I don't need all the "fluff" that's put into the store bought ones... I want it simple and functional...



EDIT::: Oh yeah, I can build ****...:redneck:

Meh, park next to the fire, put your chair on it and we can put you in your short bus when you pass out by the fire.
