I don’t see this as a permanent (or even semipermanent) living space. It is, however, an incredible camping or holiday option. It’s absolutely beautiful and seems to be super-practical. I’d definitely consider using it as an Airbnb.
Well done!
Holly you are right 🙂 These customers wanted something they could travel and stay in for a month or two but not live full time in.
This is a really nice Skoolie!
Definitely!
Almost exactly how I have dreamed of doing a bus build right size and amenities . very nicely done ..
They did a beautiful job on this Skoolie!
This is my Aunt and Uncles bus yall did.Its a amazing job.Seeing what it looked like to what it got transformed to is amazing.Beautiful job done.
That’s so cool, Laura! Do they want to share pictures of what it looks like now that they live in it?
Bob And Timmy the bus you just did and Articale is about is my Aunt and Uncle
That’s so cool, Laura! I’d love to see how they’ve personalized it since moving in.
As soon as I get some i will
Since I drive a real school bus, I think most schoolies are tacky, especially since so many that I have seen are poorly done and um, well, tacky! But this one has a very tastefully done interior and looks quite comfortable. I especially like this bathroom. Spruce up the exterior a bit, remove the stop sign, add some tint to windows and install a nice set of aluminum wheels, it would make a great weekend camping bus. For those of you that have never driven a school bus before, be advised that school buses were built to do short local runs so a long cross country trip can be miserable, believe me, I’ve done it!
That’s something I never thought about Michael — the cross-country part of it. I suppose short jaunts that make up a loooong trip might be the way to go.
Take your time getting to your destination and problem solved. rg&dfc
