    Don’t care what they put on the front, riding the short bus was never cool

    Same as any class 101, you may be with the cool kids but it came at a price later on

    Driving the short bus and riding the short bus are two completely different things!
     
  8. Riding in mine is fun.
    My students have a blast cruising in it
     
  9. I really like this!^^^^^ Have thought about doing something similar with my '51 Ford COE.

    Wow just came across this thread ….. you guys find the coolest, weirdest shit (especially @anthony myrick ).

    @Roothawg , my simple suggestion is that if you’re going to spend much time in your vintage RV, think about what you will do when you park it for the night. You may be well served to be able to either unhook the tow vehicle from a trailer or unhook a towed vehicle from a motor home and run to a local store or sightseeing location (a cycle may suffice too). It’s hard to park a motor home at Safeway.

    My opinion comes from years of RVing in OT rigs. The wife and I are currently about 1/2 timers.

    Can’t wait to see what you come up with.

    Saw this today awaiting the Hot Rod-A-Rama show in Pendleton, OR. A couple out of Kelowna, BC built it.
