I purchased a used schoolbus in december 2002. It's a 1991 Ford/Ward diesel with an auto trans. the conversion is nearly complete. Improvements include, insulating the walls, floor. Carpet, tile, finished walls. I mirror tinted the windows, and covered most of them for insulation purposes. The crown jewel is a cal spa jacuzzi that measures 93 inches square. It holds approximately 400 gallons of water. there's tv, vcr, stereo stove, frige ect. I have a 2000 watt inverter connected to a bank of golf cart batteries. I also have a generator used to power the jacuzzi.
The engine is a Ford inline 6.6L turbo diesel 6 cylinder, allison auto trans. The rear end is not optomized for highway travel, but the low gear ratio is good for climbing hills with 400 gallons of water on board!. Cruising speed is 55-60 mph on flat ground.
If anyone has questions about electrical, water, or whatever, i'l lbe more than happy to try and help.
the bus has a website too if you want to see some photo's http://www.geocities.com/blackplaguetour/ |
