HAVE HALF SIZE SCHOOL BUS

Postby RoyP » Sun Dec 09, 2012 7:35 pm

I have a half size school bus I'm interested in making into something. Its on a Ford E-450 chasis with a killer 7.3 Diesel Powerstroke engine, running strong. I'm open to ideas/collaborations, etc.

More information may help people. Presumably you're talking about making it into a mutant vehicle? Where are you based? Are you looking for particular skills or materials?
It makes sense if you don't think about it.

I'm giving this a nudge over to the Preparation -> Transportation board, as that's a better fit for brainstorming projects.

It sounds like a great start to a mutant vehicle, if you're so inclined. It'd also make great transportation for your camp (awesome rideshare or loading up with gear). I've also known a few people who've pulled out the seats and turned it into a makeshift RV/mobile living space. Whichever way you take it, could be a great project!

Have you read the school bus conversion thread? It should still be near the top in the Transportation forum.

Here (if I have done it right):
