Very cool build and floor plan. Proof again you don't need a multi-million doller motor home to have everything you need. I've lived in my 36ft 1988 Gulfstream Sunstream Hi Rise now for more than $20 years. I did remodel it to suit me. Removed all of the carpet put down hardwood floors in the living area, kitchen and hallway. In the bathroom and bedroom I put in ceramic tile floors. I changed the 6 gallon water heater to a tankless with hot water on demand never runs out of hot water. In this time I've replaced the furnace twice but they aren't too expensive. The inverter runs off of 4-6 volt golf cart batteries. I've also painted over all of the wallpaper which is easy. I kept the original oak cabinets and trim. I'm happy to see younger people living there lives on their terms and loving it. You can change your life style to suit yourself.

Having slept on my air mattress on the floor of the bus, I can attest to how cold it can get....BRRRR! I love all the new upgrades. That desk and chairs are a HUGE improvement over what you had before. Egor is looking good! Love seeing that Scooter has a nice little dog bed too! 💜 I can’t wait to be able to ride again!!! Love you Adam!

Nice work! I love the flat black and great choice on the LED headlights. School buses are made for underside storage and you nailed it. I've been working on school buses for 24 years and heating these tin cans is a challenge but leaving the metal exposed and original windows for natural light is awesome. This is a very practical conversion with crafty ideas thanks for sharing!

Love the bus. Being a seamstress, I can't help but to suggest insulated fabric for your curtains, for both heat and coolness. Like you said, it's a work in progress and you've done a great job. Thanks for the tour. If I was about 30 years younger, I'd consider something similar. Living in Oregon, we don't have a lot of NICE riding weather, but I love riding my Honda Magna 750 when I can. At 67 years of age, I hope to ride til at least 70. Thanks again for the tour!

Nancy Ingram we have used the insulation with silver on our windows in house it's the warmest or coolest room in this old house. It would work good to cover door to. Keeps from energy loss. We bought ours at Joann fabric

Nice job man.I converted a 64 International back in the 70's and loved it for camping and even a trip to Florida from Indiana. We had two babies back then so it worked out real well. Of course we didn't have the solar panels back then but I did put in a couple house batteries. I used a knife switch to charge them when driving. Enjoy your life style while you're young!

I like what you did with Igor! It makes total sense changing your logistics more to the bus. If your trailer pulls good going down the road, that's great. But I might suggest installing a stabilizer bar. Draw-tite makes one that bolts on, or is easily welded, for not too much over a hundred bucks. It's just a little extra precaution, should you have to swerve to miss something while traveling at hiway speeds. I pull a 16' stock trailer, and can tell gobs of difference when using it. A plus for you is, your bikes don't poop on the floor!! Thanks for all your work!

Just found your channel. Great bus tour, my is umm a tad bit smaller lol. As a veteran thanks for what you are doing for other veterans. I am converting a short bus myself (living space 10.5 x7). I had not thought about cutting a space for the generator, great idea. I am still away from that point but will keep it in mind. Due to the small size of the bus I have more inside so will have to really minimalize what I take. Fortunately being 5'5" and my bus had more height to work with I was able to put 2" R10 on the floor and ceiling. Yes heat can be a huge issue.
