This is a 1979 GMC Blue Bird school bus that doubles as a vintage store and road-tripping DIY motorhome for British Columbia couple, Marco Khalil and Caroline West.
Inside what seems to be an ordinary looking school bus there are vintage accents that the couple have picked up along the way throughout their adventures. Inside the bus you’ll find a bed, cabinets for storage and a sitting area to make it a comfortable place to relax and rest after a long day on the road. Notice the custom curtains that flip up to the ceiling when not in use. What a great yet simple idea, right?
The couple removed all the seats from the bus and the full renovation only took them ten days to complete! And of course there is a name for the bus. It’s Riley. Marco and Caroline use Riley as a backyard cabin on their property when they are not on the road searching for more vintage treasures and fun experiences. How’d you like getting to live in a DIY school bus motorhome while on the road? Either way please enjoy and re-share below. Thank you!

What is the height on the interior of the bus?
Another bus… And a great start on a truly mobile home…!
The flip up curtains. Yep, great idea, especially the one with a map on it. Great idea for not just maps but calendars and schedules and such as well. As I am outfitting my new motor home for a full-time nomadic lifestyle, I find that looking at and reading about the homes others have either built and/or live in gives me much inspiration.
10 Days! WOW!!!
LOVE this! Vintage colors and accents make this and all done in 10 days?! I hope to have something similar one day..Bravo
Love seeing a small space that isn’t all built in stuff but contains actual furniture.
I would love to know, if I am not being to personal….how much was the bus and seperately, how much were the renovations?
Love, love, love this!!! They did a marvelous job.
This is super… and I love the short time of the conversion. My biggest concern is this: bathroom & shower???? How does one do a bath and shower in a bus?
