after you see this one you will understand why some places don't want to accept a bus until they see it in person. Check out the wiring and plumbing.

Be fair.  It looks like they are only just starting to fix up something that someone else started.  I get the impression they have no intention of driving it either.

I applaud them for trying. They need to hook up to the bus boards and save themselves some headaches.

If you're into wasting time you might find this one entertaining:

Jim,

That is a great video.  Doesn't the guy sound like a Stoner?  I really like (read amazed) what he did with his "on demand" hot water heater venting.

Thanks,

John

I once spoke to a guy that had a similar setup for his propane generator exhaust.  I thought it was pretty clever.

Gotta give the guy credit for exposing himself to all of us who might know better or maybe not.

Even though he sounded stoned he was enjoying himself.  ;D

Wish I was that young again so I had many more years to enjoy Dreamscape and all of the great people I have met.

I didn't see him actually doing the work...

Wifey was doing most of it.... ::) ::)

I wonder whatever happened to them?

That video was pretty old and he hasn't logged in for over 3 months?

I dunno, I am not so sure I want to ber THAT young again. But I gotta admit Ruth Ann is hot and he has a ray gun and a magic water hose attached to his bus. Cripes... he has more than I have right now! ;D

My guess is that the little wifey has moved on to someone more interested in helping with the work by now but then I may be giving her more credit than she deserves.

But Bob he was working hard too! It just didn't show at the moment, but wait until the documentary comes out about how they/she converted the Crown bus to live in b4 they became famous! Wow my hat's of to that dude, he's got his hands full researching, filming, and editing and all that stuff that goes with making a great documentary great! Whew, and on top of all that "the li'l wifey" just kinda drags her feet along like everythings ok it'll get done in due time, no hurries! (I believe she thinks because she is hot, she doesn't have to do her fair share of the work!)

he must have just been takin a break,  it's tiring gettin the wifey to do all the work!! :D

Gotta give him edit for getting her to help.  they plan on sleeping in the front and cooking in the back., interesting.  and gonna move into it in 10 days.

is the engine in the middle on those?

may be he wanted the access hatch under the bed.

It's all fun and games til someone gets hurt. ;)

Amusing as Styrofoam Gas Cans are, Solar Flashlights(http://www.solareagle.com/sunmate_flash.html) actually exist!

I also own and am converting a Crown Super Coach ex-schoolie and I found the video distastful enough that I stopped viewing it after they threatened the headlights with a nail and hammer and the young lady leaning over WAY TOO MUCH to clean the sink.  I would raise the base cabinets at least 6 inches higher sossss I could stand up straight.  Much less painful on my lower back.

Perhaps the intent of the movie was to create an "over-the-top" point of view.  I hope soosss.  Perhaps I am getting way tooos old at age 58.  It's amazing how our life orientation changes over time as we age.
Right now my project is to collect all the used parts necessary to make my Cummins BC2 250 into a BC2 444.  Older stuff still available up here in OR and $cheap$ tooss.  CROWNS FOREVER!!  :) :) :)
