Wanna see it? C'mon down :ThumbsUp
You mean I have to take new pics? You won't settle for "old" ones? :Rofl There's been a few pics posted here before.

Here's just after paint, and the cedar trim hadn't even weathered yet.

That thing is cool, I could live in that forever. Did you start with a school bus? Diesel?
Hey Neon ain't you got some pics you posted during the build process?
Makes me want to become a nomad.
That would be a great way to retire, just drive from lake to lake and do nothin but fish.Quote:

Thanks! Yep, '93 International Chassis, Carpenter Body, just over 60K on it when I bought it. 360DTA (after-cooled turbo), it's a turd on the road, and gets 5-6mpg, but ask me if I care :RoflQuote:

OK, I was a Mod on the site where I'd kept a running thread of when the bus was converted, turned-out the site owner was a liar, but that's in the past. I left the site, and hadn't been back until just now, to snag the link to the thread containing the entire project.
Knock yourselves out :Rofl

G, not sure if there's any problems to my adding the link, I thought it was just regarding other fishing sites. If there is (a problem), just squash it, and accept my apology.
no problem.....its not a fishing forum
Just curious, can we start posting Craigslist deals again? For a while they where being deleted.Quote:

Know anywhere I could get a nice boat Bill? :Rofl Wished I could, we'd talk, but already at 60' length, add another 20+ feet, and I'd have my own one-man convoy. Then there's the issue of launching, might start a ruckus when I hogged the ramp with the bus :RoflQuote:

Should not be a problem as far as I know, and I'm the owner, right! Maybe something was deleted in the past because it was for an item that was completely inappropriate for our site.Quote:

BTW, I got some nice boats in stock right now, and a great deal on a used boat or two. You could just leave em at my place till ya come back down, or you Could just stay here and fish, and go back home for short visits!!! Lol

If it wasn't for Dad, I wouldn't really have any reason to ever lay eyes on, uhhh....er....duh....oh, Indiana again. I do have a Brother and Sister there, but they seem to get by just fine without me.
See John, that's what you guys get for bein' nice to folks down here :yikes
Thanks Bill, who knows, maybe one day we'll talk. But I'd want a boat just like yours, only 3' longer with a 50 horse bigger motor :Rofl
