Lots of wires. Bus won’t start. Got a friend coming to help get it working again. 🙏🏽 - - - - #skoolie #skoolieconversion #shortbusconversion #busconversion #effitletsgo #buswires

Had my pops help sort out the wiring to the fuse box. I know almost NOTHING about electricity, so it was nice to have home school me on the basics. We still have some power running through one wire to the box, so we need to see where that’s coming from, or cap it before we remove the box itself. Other than that, I think the whole box and attached wires can be removed. We plan to run our interior lights off solar, so the existing wires can be removed. - #skoolieconversion #skoolie #shortbusconversion #busconversion #effitletsgo #skooliewiring #wireremoval #shortbus #chevroletexpress3500

Walls and Ceilings are out! • We used a chisel and hammer to remove the rivets of the walls. (Tried an angle grinder but wasn’t working so well for us). • Since everything was attached to everything, we kept moving forward and took the ceiling panels out. Got $5 back from the scrap yard, enough for a beer. - Now we gotta figure out where all these wires go! Decide what we want to keep, or if we can just remove the entire box. - #skoolie #skoolieconversion #shortbusconversion #busconversion #effitletsgo #ceilingremoval #skoolielife #corbeil #chevyexpress3500

We removed our heater and looped the coolant hose. Thanks to the Skoolie.net forums and the few YouTube videos out there, I was able to figure it out. (I’m not mechanic by any means). I removed both in and out lines, trimmed a piece of hose off to use later, then ran inside OSH to find two PEX Elbows and clamps to complete the loop. {EDIT- Sharkbite 3/4 Brass PEX elbow crimp fittings} The rubber band is there to temporarily hold it in place while driving around to test for leaks and circulate the added coolant. Once I confirmed it was leak free, I zip-tied it to the frame. So far so good! • • • #skoolieconversion #skoolieconversion #shortbusconversion #busconversion #effitletsgo #skoolieheater #busbuild #skooliedemolition #skoolieheaterremoval

Anthony Bourdain had a very big effect on the way my wife and I have chosen to live our lives. He affected the way we pick our destinations, and the way we experience food & culture through traveling. I can honestly say, our lives would be entirely different had his being not inspired us. So I’d like to send many thanks into the universe for everything he has done for us and anyone else whose minds he helped open during the time he spent in this world. Rest In Peace, man. @anthonybourdain The world is much more beautiful than it is terrible. #anthonybourdain #ripbourdain #travelinspired #bagan #myanmar #myanmar🇲🇲 #effitletsgo #partsunknown #thankyoubourdain

Got lucky with clean boards and screws in good condition. boards are coming up easily...BUT...trying to figure out what to do about this heater to get this last board out. - #shortbusconversion #skoolieconversion #skoolie #effitletsgo #floors
