We aren't in a rush this time. So we have the chance to do it as best we can, although it's still going to be as cheap as possible lol

I think that means that this winter, we will likely just be focusing on stripping it down. Regardless of which one we end up with, we expect there will be some rust to deal with. Most of that will have to wait til it's warm again though, because I don't think we'll get there

I guess we could start fitting and cutting the framework and covering for it, just dry fit it temporarily.

That give us a chance to work out layout issues that can't be settled til we're looking at it stripped down.

On the note of stripping it down. I've been watching bus building videos for years, a lot more in the recent weeks of course. I don't know what's wrong with some the people who do this, but definitely something is... lol

I'll look under the bus when we first get it, and IF by some weird off chance, the seat nuts look like they would be easy to turn, I 'might' give it a try... Might... Chance of that is really slim though, because I'm going to get some ear protectors, goggles and use an angle

The amount of time people waste on trying to take them off, even on 'newer' buses, is insane, they could have all the seats out in less time then they waste, not counting the time it actually takes them to do it lol

Shit, I watched one video where the people spent more time running back and forth to the store trying to get the right tools to take them off then it would have to cut them all off.

1972: I had a 1961 Ford Econoline that I spray-painted flat black (inside in the back) & hung beads behind the front seats. I wasn't even a hippie yet. Had 170-c.i. engine, top-ended 61 mph downhill w/tailwind & hamsters on amphetamines churning the wheels.

My van died shortly before I went to undergrad. I'm sure your mechanical skills are superior to mine. (I had a summer internship with Acme Corp & the rocket-propelled things never turned out well.) I have to get up at (my usual) absurdly early hour. G'night my friend!
