Great stuff Ian , most people who drive coaches want to be truck drivers , your going the other way.
Hope it turns out how you envisaged it.
Cheers Ean
I've been talking about doing it for years, now I've finally done it; I'm the happy owner of a full size coach. My intention is to convert it to a luxury motor home, the reality may be a jury rigged shack on wheels.
In view of the questions I intend asking the AULRO brains trust, where should I post it?
The Modified Zone? It will be highly modified.
European Manufactured? It is a MAN.
American Manufactured? It has factory fitted Yank running gear.
Oceania Manufactured? The body is local, Brisbane in fact.
Trailers, Vans and Campers?
Alternate Energies or one of the many technical areas of which I will have hundreds of questions?
Members Rides, maybe?
May I take this opportunity to thank you knowledgeable and helpful folk, in advance for advice and assistance.
Digger springs to mind, you may need to enlarge you driveway. Andy, I will need you and the yellow lump to carve me a track into Melrose and Wombat etc.. Finally, Drivesafe, boy have I got some questions for you.
If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

Top stuff.
Having just sold mine, as yet to be picked up from the farm, I will be watching with interest Ian.
first things first, how are you going to drive the series 1 up the date of the bus,
ramps or build a rock climber. Still leave you plenty of room for your swag
cheers

The plan is to eventually have a trailer to carry the Disco and bike, finance and gonads permitting, an ultralight would also grace the trailer.

Um i dont know what to say apart from good luck (speechless).
I drive a M A N and what a P,O,S it is and even if it has has a yankie heart and soul it is the electric`s that are more likely to fail sorry to say
regardless of what you do with the rest of the 40'--
leave the first two rows of bus seats in till nearly finished inside,,
You may never sleep more than 2,, but being able to seat 6-8 right up the front will always be handy,,

I think it needs a category of it's own Ian.
Good luck with it. I don't know if you need an Architect or a Shipwright.
Cheers, Billy.
