    How cool would a Drive-Inn Theatre look back in there? You could line up the cars like there are people watching a show. I have a Drive-Inn Theatre Museum, and if I had the space and access to a bunch of cool rides I would definitely do that.

    Put the truck bed at the back at the same level at the bus floor so it’s a walk out deck area?? 🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍

    I like the idea 💡 of putting a truck 🚚 bed 🛌 😴 behind the Bus 🚌 at Flore Level, Then Cut ✂️ the Roof of a nother Bus 🚌 to hang over the Truck Bed...
    Then pute a 20 foot Container of the back cut ✂️ down to floor level... Line with plastic and fill with water 💧 for the Grand Kid's.... FUN TIME

    Congratulations on the progress you have made this far on your bus to cabin conversion. Shame they didn't provide a template for the roof passthrough, but you tackled and completed that issue as well. Staying tuned in to monitor the process. Thanks for allowing us to view your stories!

    You should seriously consider painting that big block of cheese green and throw some of that army netting over it...then it won't stick out like a sore thumb.
    Also , if you run across an aluminum staircase you could put it on the back of the bus for easy access through the backdoor...
    P.S.
    Ingredients for painting a bus.
    You , a friend , 5gals. of house paint , a couple of rollers and 30mins. , BAM !! ....It's all done.

    Hi Silas, My name is Rob, north Florida. You stated used tire prices there . In Florida right NOW a used tire is @ $40 in date and $20 out of date. Small tire shops here BUY trailer loads of takeoffs. Surely you could sell a LOT of used tires here. I understand, you work alone, you can only do so much.

    Good day to you Silas! Just have to follow along on the progress on your cabin. Such a shame you're so far away, we could knock out those seats in no time. I started out my first job at 14 years old, working in a junk yard, so you could say it's in my blood. That was 1966, paid a dollar an hour, tax free. My partner and I owned a small yard a few years, until we lost the lease on the property. Now I'm old, retired, semi-disabled but still get around. I'd be happy to be a second set of hands for you, if I could. Still strong, can still lift a couple hundred pounds, just don't walk well. Sure wish I could come work with you! Never met you, but bet I'd get along well with you. As always, best to you and yours!
