Hi yall. A while back I asked if anyone had pictures of a dina conversion. Someone was going t send some, but, I never got any. Just wondering if anyone else reads this may have some. We have a gmc buffalo bus now that we use, but are in the process of converting the dina. Any of you who travel a lot in the southeast have probably seen us at some point going down the highway. It is white, green and burgandy. We have the dina in a shop now getting the roof raised and the windows blanked out. They are working on weekends on it, and they say they will be done by end of December. We are putting in central air conditioning, and webasto heat in the floors. Any suggestions on painting it, even if it is just white for now? Wont be able to afford a pro job right now, just need it to look decent while we get the money for better.
Ruthi,
I can't help with the Dina photos, but as far as color, I would use white as the main color with just a few stripes of accent colors. Bright white is the best color to reflect heat and that is the biggest problem when trying to cool a bus in the south.
Try to attend Bussin' 09 in Arcadia, Florida 12/29-1/1/09. There will probably be around 100 coaches there. If you need more information on the rally, just email me jconrad@rvbus.net Jack
Go to ... www.staleycoach.com ... and there is a Dina conversion listed under " for sale by owner " ...also ...www.heartlandbus.com has a couple of Dina conversions for sale...good reference pictures ..good luck !
Ruthi, I sent you a package of photos from the Rambling Fever conversion of a Dina 3 weeks ago to the address you gave me by US Media mail
good luck
I did say I would send you photos of my Dina when I get around to taking some, but no commitment on that. I've been sick with a cold for a while now and trying to catch up on yard work that should have been done two weeks ago.
I have not gotten any pics, but we were gone for almost 2 months. They delivered my mail when I got home, but, I was thinking that all my mail was not there. I will talk to the postman tomorrow. Belfort, hope you feel better. Thanks for the replies. I would love to go to the rally in Fl. I dont know yet what our work schedule is for the first of Jan. yet though.
