The Bus rides again! After sitting for 6 months after she sprung a leak we were finally able to make it to the bay area to assess the damage and bring her down to San Diego. I was shocked when she started up without a jump after not being started for 6 months. This battery is a trooper! I was able to find the leak quickly. It was gas! Luckily I was able to replace a small section of gas line and we were back in business! It felt great to drive her around the bay again. So on Sunday May 12th we loaded her up and began the long drive to SoCal. I am happy to say we made it safely and didn’t have any issues.

My buddy Kris also helped out hugely by cutting a piece to go under the rear bench. This goes a long way in hiding the seat brackets and will allow us to install some 6x9’s. The Bus’ story can begin to be written again!

The bus is back!

Finally got the key fixed! Took the bus out in the first major rain of the season to get some vegan/vegetarian groceries and he ran like a champ! Even after sitting for almost 2 months. More updates to follow! We plan to sell some of our art pieces out of the bus this weekend. Happy to be back!

Quick trip to the dog park

Well not every post can be about an improvement to the bus. This one is about enjoying it! My grandma who has lived on the east coast for my entire life is finally moving to California! We wanted to take our pup Myles to the dogpark and decided to take the bus for a Saturday stroll. Everything really is more fun in the bus!

Up next is the side door panels!

Front Door Panels Done

We seem to be hitting our stride now. The driver side door panel went a lot smoother than the passenger panel. With both front doors completed the bus is already feeling closer to completion! The weather this week hasn’t been so great, but I can’t wait to take him out for a cruise!
