Mike, painting this early was a NEED TO DO in order for the bus to pass inspection. The things that make it a school bus had to go like certain lights and flashers, a "whip" thing ... John can give those details. He'd normally post first thing but today's "first thing" was to go get Rosebus and drive it to its temporary resting place (where we had Wrenchfest, at Morgan's). There he can finish the last few things to get it inspected and then registered.
ITMT, John's been noodling with Pat Guy, Mongo, and other Skoolie owners on some interior ideas. I'm just amazed at what some folks have done inside the shell. We don't need much for it to work for us, but we do need more "leg" room, so to speak.
