My bus journey

Demolition cont. (LOTS of progress)

For the next phase of demolition (removing AC units and removing bolts on the bottom of the bus) I knew I needed help.  I had a few days to myself to work on a few things. Fortunately, Alan's friend Lucie was available for two days to help.  Together, we knocked out so much this last trip:
  • Back heater and coolant line
  • Ceiling AC units (2)
  • Wheelchair tracks (tip: 3/4" hole saws through the aluminum tracks if the hex bolts do not budge or are inaccessible in places below the bus)
  • Ceiling panels
  • Most of the wall panels
  • Started removing unnecessary wiring
I am confident we will finish the demolition next trip (rust conversion, welding the couple of bad rust locations, reseal windows, etc.)

​Start:
During:
After:
As of now, my build plans look something like this below.  I have made some additional adjustments since this arrangement.  But it is coming together.  I am enjoying demolition and I am thrilled to begin building in the near future.
The far left is the front five feet for the driver's seat (dark red paper) and steps. The yellow paper is storage area, including a 2 foot deep garage at the end.  There will be welded loops for a hammock chair and hammocks inside (for those who want to come join me!)
