So how many tubes of lube required to slide that big boy into that teensy little slot?

If I was really going to live in one I would convert a double decker. I’ve seen some amazing stuff. They can be pretty nice.

Edit: I’m an idiot. Not a Flxible, but a “flxible copy” MCI. I think.

Late ‘60s Flxible bus with some kind of “running update” lights, or early ‘70s - unsure. Rear lights look quite weird. Some kind of “visicoach” or such type special model with the roofline windows.

Not sure what age, but it’s an MCI, I think an MC5, that’s the only one I can find with those windows and no tag axle

Yeah, I realized my mistake.

Still worth note that it’s a highly specialty model.

Ah, didn’t see that while I was busy googling MCI models. I like it, it looks better to me than longer/taller  ones

This picture came up when I was trying to pin down model year, searching 1980. A match other than the roofline option, more or less :

I think no later than 1980 for the specific bumper + lights + markers + cladding combo. In fact, since just about every ‘81+ I can see in pictures doesn’t have the canted cladding and half of the ‘79s have round headlights, I think it’s possible to pin down to within two years.

 You are spot on with this one. I could see converting a minivan as a weekend 1-2 person camper, but if you're going to do diy RVing this is the place to start.  All of the space you'll ever need on wheels with an engine..

Well I was looking at what it costs to build a house and there are so many fees for a new build that it’s just insane. So I have a big ideas folder for this as well as a bunch of Pinterest ideas bookmarked. All the agents have picked up the rotting homes around here,  kept a corner and called it an improvement. I found great lots for $100k but to build anything... etc.. and it skyrockets. My cousin is a contractor and I saw some amazing tour busses and busses that didn’t go anywhere unless they had to move.

I got nervous backing a box truck in next to the high school. I’m pretty sure I would’ve accidentally demolished that house.

The first few times I backed up our box truck at work I was nervous and having a bad time. After a few times, especially within a couple days, something clicks and it gets way less stressful. The bus would be easier than a box truck too, possibly, because the width is consistent
