June 27, 2007
This blog will chronicle my work as I do things on my bus to make it more suitable for my style/liking.
The bus is a 1970 Bluebird flat-nose. It's the same body as the Wanderlodge, but nowhere near as nice.
The bottom photo is what I hope to transform mine into. It belongs to Jake VonSlatt of Massachusetts. He's quite a talented fellow. I wish I had an ounce of his knowledge.
However, the top is what I have to work with. I think that a coat of paint will make a world of difference. Where the green bus has a white top, mine will have a tan/light brown top with the same green bottom. I plan to start painting it next week.
My bus stats:
Obtained on June 26, 2007
Engine: rear mounted gasoline
Transmission: 5-speed manual
Miles: 10,000 original miles
Presently has rudimentary conversion. I will be changing a lot of things, and chronicling each change as it happens, complete with before & after photos.
I'll do my best to keep this as current as possible.
