Our library bus conversion

Coming along nicely there, see you have the same affliction as me with the photos wrong way up! Yours is a damn site neater than mine, woodwork aint my best talent, looks a bit rough and ready compared to yours. I too have used tiger seal extensively, although not on the dog! You ever tried to remove anything youve tigered in place? I used it on transmission tunnel in my landy, had to take it back out to recon my gearbox and had to cut it out and buy a new one, once its cured properly it aint ever coming off again. Ive bonded my solar panels to roof with it
 
Really interested to see your conversion getting put together. Got a crick in my neck now though.
 
When I upload the pictures they are the right way round then when I look at uploaded pictures half of them are the wrong way round. Sorry peeps just have to have a crikky neck or put the screen on its side:p

Thanks its a beaut Sharon once its ready I wont want to shower anywhere else hehehe:lol-053:
 
It's a very big van. I think you would be rather restricted as to where you can go with such a large vehicle. My friend has a converted library, a large Merc and has problems finding suitable wild spots and ends up on over priced campsites most of the time. Lots of room and very comfortable but impractical for wild camping. IMO.

Im sure we will manage thanks
 
Looking even better, its definitely getting there. As an HGV C1 driver for many years I know when you've got used to it you'll have no probs chucking it around, perhaps you won't get to some of the more rural POI's but I've been to loads that you would get into dead easy. Keep it up.
 
getting there indeed !when you have a van this size you just adapt to it. in my case i always had a m/bike or moped to check out tracks, get water and shopping etc. one i had,i raised the back half of the roof a metre to create a bedroom for a couple of kids,the other 2 slept under it, so i had to think about height as well. it was only really tight fishing villages i had any trouble with,so i got pretty good at reversing and not getting stressed !
although it often went places nobody would have thought possible, i made sure it had easily accessible fixing points front and rear and that i carried an excellent towrope ,there's always a tractor nearby !
 
it looks fab keep going ,im now coming close to finish my bus to and its only 22 ft but i would love yours and well done to you.
 
Love the shower!! Nice and big same as the van lovely its looking good :cheers:
 
Thats really nice. I never cease to be amazed at what people can produce.
There are certainly plenty of places in Scotland where it will be great for wilding in.
