John,
Are you going to drive with those railings like that or are they removable or do they fold down onto the wood?
They don’t fold or come off….ย ๐ย Solid welded all around…ย I made it as tall as I could and still make it in the dirty shop! and under my deck!
I want to put 4 dudes in lawn chair up there.. with 4 beers… and see if we can make it to Roosters without getting pulled over… ๐ย ๐ย ๐
JJ, you shouldย install a beetle hood up there like that Shasta bus a few years back. ๐ก
I'm at the age where "fuck off", "fuck you", and "fuck it" answer most questions.
I thought about riveting aluminum on the sides… for stickers…. or SPONSORS!!! ๐ย ย maybe dimple die it?ย ย ๐ก
Ha, The trip to Roosters sounds Awesome! I think the aluminum on the sides for stickers and sponsors could look really cool also.
My bus is quickly running to the top of my list of things I need to work on….ย ย BBB is just around the corner!!!!
I hope all the energy is roaring towards my bus and it making it to the very tip top of my list today… I need to get to screwin.. ๐ย ย and my engine bay still is full of MOAB red dirt…. ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐
John u want a hand screwing off!! That deck. Thatโs what I am good at SCREWING OFF? hit me up. I am bored
I tuned my bus up, changed my pulley to that $80 Porsche pulley, it’s slightly smaller, supposed to give a little more fan speed…. ๐ณย ๐ณย ๐ณ
We had our usual anniversary Red Lobster.. and headed to the hippie hot springs….ย Orvis, Just past Ridgeway…ย Had two good soaks… Slept in our bus.. and damn was it cold out.. like 6 degree’s….ย But we snuggled up and it was fine…. I’m glad we left the dogs at home… There was ice on the inside of the bus this morning…ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ย Anywho…. On the way home… I shredded that Porsche pulley….. stripped the rear pulley where it index’s into the hub… kinda like china made one’s … ๐ ๐ ๐ ย Luckily I had a stock replacement with me… and belt.. so less than 10 minutes… we were back on the road….ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ย No more Porsche pulley try outs for me….ย I will stick with what I know works… ๐
I did not get my wood installed…. I’m gonna do that tomorrow.. ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐
separated with paint sticks, used leverage bar to get some 3/4 steel in on the left side, so I can still get a tie down down there…. I guess I will drill large holes on the right side to sew my tarp up for storage., ๐ย ๐ย ย OH BTW…. I measured this stuff.. it’s 1″ thick… then 1/4′ routed out where those larger tubes are sticking up. so it’s pretty flush with the 3/4″ tube…ย I plan on getting it all screwed down… and get up here with some 36 grit on a 8″ da and smooth this shit out like glass!!!!!ย ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐
and for all you out there thinking… “damn, john gets to work on his bus on christmas”…ย Corporate loves this bus as much or more than I do!!!! ๐ย ๐ย ๐ย ๐
Thatโs killer John! Whatโs next on the pamper? Or should I ask Corperate whatโs on the ol upgrade list? I vote custom mini woodstove? Greg and Clara have a bus with a wood burner.
Thatโs so awesome u guys love doing this stuff together…..jealous!
The sky deck in use on Christmas!!! 28 degrees, and we are toasty warm!!!!!
I love going on adventures in our bus!!!
