How much paint mix is being used per coat on that side?

He said right at half a gallon per side

Got the other side painted and put some stripes on, working on stripes on the other side now.

I tell you what Scott, I am starting to feel it. It's been sun up to sun down for a month now, and I will be pushing myself pretty hard to meet my end of the month deadline. Now that the paint is done I can put the windows in,  which means a ton more trim to do. I'm almost done with the cabinets, but I still have almost all of the plumbing left to do.

I haven't been on here in a while and was just looking through what you've done. Impressive how much you've gotten done and how good it looks. I guess it helps having done a previous bus and knowing what works and what you want. Good on you, Craig

Thanks, they did not waste very much paint, that is good coverage considering they are painting from top to bottom with no stainless siding.

He just painted from the upper belt line up, just where I installed new skins. The rest of the bus was painted a year ago so it still looks like new paint.

Got the tile laid in the kitchen and bathroom yesterday. Gonna grout and trim the edge of the counters today and hopefully get all the appliances and sinks installed.

Here's the temporary sofa and dinette  (we will be installing a new leather jacknife sofa and matching  dinette booth this winter as funds and time allows).



Kitchen with tile finished and trimmed, and all appliances installed.

hi Derrick, seems like you split the kitchen and living room up front. my 5A had a front kitchen, a center living room, with a hatch inside to the front bay, when it came time for the 102C3, my wife wanted a middle kitchen, I liked the front kitchen, tom, lvmci...

[thomasinnv]

Getting close to launch date.  5 days left i think we are going to make it.



Got all the window covers on and all the awnings mounted. The wife has it about half packed already.

Phenomenal speed, you may have set a record from empty shell to ready to go conversion. Are you still aching from all that work?

[Scott & Heather]

It's amazing how fast he converted that. Honestly it's an inspiration that you don't need to take years to do a conversion.

Remarkable.

A friend of mine a few years ago converted a bus over the winter, just working evenings and week-ends. Cost him his girl friend though... she never saw him that winter.

Just curious.  How many people working on the conversion?  Just you and the wife?  I thought my friend and his wife doing their Prevost in 6 months was fast, but guys are phenomenal!
