Bus Living, Truck Living, Boat Living. You name it, if you live in a home that is capable of moving by itself, or have the desire to, then this is the place for you.
I'm not a fan of the modern look of the interior but the quality restoration of the dash area sold me in that the modern didn't matter as much as how beautiful of a job they did. That bus is immaculate. They couldn't have done any less than a frame up on it.
They probably glued that liner to the ceiling. Maby they put a thin layer of foam rubber insualtion on first with something like construction adhesive, and then glued the cloth liner to that? Or perhaps they used contact cement so they did not have to hold it up in place while it dried? That way they could just roll and press it up and have it come out so nice and smooth with no wrinkles

Essentially its a one ton Chevy 350 Chassis, coachwork by Fleury, 19 ft bumper to bumper, used to sleep 6 before someone took out the rear fold up bunk over the table.
Roomier now though--and here I go again, I'm going to try to have him revamp it--at least I've got him to the point where he says he'll spend a day off trying to get it to run, it turns over, but no fuel--gas tank problem.
If he can run it off a big boat fuel can, he can get it into his step-mom's shop to work on it.
I told him to take a picture when he gets around to washing it

IT LIVES AND RUNS AND MOVES!!!!!
Today it is getting a bath and Rob has promised to send me "before" and "after" pics.
I was nagging him again about fixing it up--says he needs new tires too. Guess I'd better send him the site link, that motorhome would look awesome with a few ideas I have
Anyone know how they did that gray covered headliner?
The RV industry has a masonite type of panel with foam and a very nice vinyl covering (leather looking) in 4x8 sheets available at the surplus stores around Elkhart.
This bus looks to be one piece, so it may be they glued it up. Nicely done.
