Thanks so much for joining us! We have a long journey ahead but are determined to make this build the best we possibly can! 🚌

This is what retired guys live for. Someone else’s project that they can help with when they feel like it. This is also what retired wives live for. Someone else’s project that they can send the hubbies off too and give them 5 min on their own. You are doing a service for seniors
I am looking forward to watching this series. My Nan and granddad converted and old 16 seater back in the 70’s when it wasn’t a thing and we spent so many school holidays seeing parts of WA with them

Omg as a bus lover and current coaster bus owner I live for this content!

I've been driving buses on and off all of my life ( Now 70 ). It will get easier, just like riding a bike. My wife and I lived in a bus in Queensland and Victoria for 16 years. I will be interested to see your end result. Good luck with the build. 🎉

We had to wait until completed to register our bus as a motor home, with electrical, gas and engineering certificates, in VIC. It was a lot of work.

How exciting! Have fun, and yup schoolie fit outs YT research in the USA 🎉 Only advice I have, keep it simple, use the space, have a lounge, like a real one, and weight adds up quickly and so does "stuff" when it comes to using space. Cant wait! ❤ OMG Homeonthe roam YT coaster fit out-nice one...

That must have felt like a massive accomplishment driving the bus in the traffic like that! Well done Jack. We are looking forward to watching your build.

You should keep 2 seats and put a table in the middle just to keep a part of the old bus feel
