troy Report post Posted August 1, 2016 I bought this bus in November (2015), the inside of the bus was done for the most part. It needed some upgrades and repairs, nothing major. The outside was a different story. I found a gentleman that did bodywork and painted on the side. He started doing the bodywork in December and on weekends and days off. At the end of April the bus was finally ready for paint. We moved the bus from my home to a building where I work to start the paint process. It took , a month but it was finally done. As you can see it turned out awesome. The gentleman that painted it was very picky. I need to say a big thank you and also a new friend Wade. None of this would be possible if it wasn't for a really good friend, thank you Alan. PART_1468546488519_1468546488605 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hermanmullins Report post Posted August 17, 2016 Looks like a nice restoration. I looked at the first picture and saw the jacks. I personally would have gone with a HWH system, but what the heck, what ever floats your boat. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
