🚌Wire sorting day(s)🚌 This has been the most nerve racking part so far. From cutting a bad wire a few weeks ago that led to a starting issue (previous post) to tackling the mess of wires in the 100+degrees of Los Angeles weather...we finally did it! 😁🕺🏽Here are some photos of the progress... - -#skoolie #buswires #skoolieconversion #shortbusconversion #busconversion #wireremoval #skooliewiring #skoolielife #skooliebuild #shortbus #effitletsgo
Had some trouble starting the bus the past few weeks after we (may have) cut an important wire during our wire-sorting process. • We had some friends help us get out of the OSH parking lot, replace our starter & soulenoid, and check all fuses before we were at a complete loss. • We then decided it was time to take it to an auto electrician. (David and Sunny’s Auto Van Nuys). • There was a relay under the hood that may have been providing power to the overhead fuse box for the stop sign, flashers, int. lights, etc., • Sunny the mechanic removed the relay altogether and connected some of the wiring directly, which solved the problem and only cost me $80...much cheaper than I expected! • Now we can finally continue to work on it! - - - #skoolie #buswires #skoolieconversion #shortbusconversion #busconversion #busproblems #skoolierepair #skooliewiring #skoolieprogress #busupdate #skoolielife #vanlife
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
