- In this episode, we kick off the transformation of our new home on wheels - the old tour bus from The Darkness! As we begin dismantling some of the downstairs interior, we stumble upon an unexpected find: a hidden safe.
Watch as we try to crack it open and see what’s inside!
Follow along as we make progress on turning this iconic bus into our dream home on the road. There’s a lot more to come in this exciting build journey!
am glad yt brought me here, this has made my day, love the restoration on old cars and bikes , what a great family :)
Aww we are so glad it did to! Thank you for watching
Love the bus and wat a bonus find look forward see next video
Plenty more surprises to come !! Thanks for watching.
*OMG!* Had no idea The Darkness were such lightweights! 😱😱😱😱
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Haha, Eddie Hall! I’m a recent viewer near Newcastle playing catch up. Cracking bus, I like it a lot. Nice that there’s a lot less work to do than a totally from scratch gutting. I’m saving to start a bus next season. Nothing flash. Learning a lot from your channel. Thanks :)
Thank you so much for watching. And I get that a lot !!
lovely colour and I cant wait to see how the transformation goes
Thank you for watching !!
Even a small job is still a job done 👍 looking forward to watching all the progress on this bus. Me and my wife start our full time van life in a few weeks time, exciting times ahead for us.
Absolutely! These things take time! I bet your very excited!!
@@six_inabus yeah can’t wait been a long time in the making, can’t wait to hit the road
@@ian_corbett enjoy!!!!
Just found your channel and subscribed. I got my PSV with Leeds Metro in 1978. I left after a few months and went on the coaches with Heaps Tours (Sunrise Travel). I always wanted to do what you are doing with that beast! Too late now! I´m retired to Spain with my dog and cat. Took me back seeing that Metro decker in the shed in the last video! Great channel! All the best.
Thank you so much for watching!
That laphroaig will be perfect for when winter draws in. A couple of drops of water will really open it up.
Ahah tip noted lol. Thanks for watching !
Great start guys , just need to do a bit of rearranging and down stairs will be fine after a good clean. I would make sure that all of the surfaces are given a good clean , because this used to be a tour bus . I bet all sorts of drugs were used in there. Especially as you have children. Can’t wait for the next episode. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Most definitely a few bits to sort! Everything got a clean before too !! Thanks for watching
I’m pretty sure I traveled in that bus in the past ( I was in the music biz a few years ago) that will Make a fabulous MH when finished
Thank you so much for watching!
We drank out of date beer and still here to tell the tale😊
That good to hear as so have we !! Thanks for watching
@@six_inabus will definitely be watching this journey as hubby was a coach driver, we live full time in an RV😁
@@suzybearsisson994 aw I bet that’s amazing space in the RV!!
Just stumbled across this. Doing something I've always wanted to do but haven't the money or space to do it! Love it
Thank you so much for watching !!
especialy the whisky!
Tastes bang on! Thanks for watching
brilliant vids looking forward to the next one :)
Thank you. We have plenty to show you !!
Some advice, dont wash the cracked broken windows with a pressure washer. Also are you going to go round the interior with a black light before you clean it?
Thank you. And I think we might do a video on it !!!
@@six_inabus lol, nice one! 😄
great channel, looking forward to see how you do
Thank you so much for watching
Also Check The Fuel If Its Black Then The Injection Pump Is Mixing Engine Oil Out Through The Return To Tank Better Pull The Stand Pipe Out To Check Or That Woosh When You Open The Filler Cap Is A Good Sign
Thats a good shout. Thank you !!
Before Fastway, I think it could well have been an ex. Oxford Tube due to the design and your mention of the red paint.
Yeah we are struggling to find out it’s past. It’s on a private plate and we don’t know the original reg yet! Thanks for watching
i bet a darkness fan would want to buy the bits you take out
Ahaha won’t be much left! Thanks for watching !
dont chuck any spirits away they dont go out of date and you may need these during the build!
Oh we haven’t. We been enjoying them !! Thanks for watching
I can’t say anything useful other than that’s going to be brilliant when you finish it. Only discovered your channel last week commented on Lincoln truckfest. Looking forward to you converting The Darkness and any travels between. The alcohols probably still drinkable 😂
Oh it definitely is! Going down a treat!!! Thank you so much for watching !!
enjoyed will follow on your journey good luck/ (Jogalong)
Thank you so much !!!
Those Headlights Look Similar To Dennis Tridents And The Side Lights From An Optare Solo Rear Reverse
The rears are defo market ! Thanks for watching
Is it a Phoebe thing? I too am wearing my snuddie whenever wherever!
Haha it must be. She wear it all the time! Thanks for watching !
Drove that bus when Dave owned it @ Fastway
Oh wow!! We found the fast way sign on the roof!! Thanks for watching
Looks to have scrubbed up quite well. Are you keeping the purple colour? Looks quite nice to be fair 👌
It did to be fair. The colour we love so we will see!
Your video attractie my attention. I work for VDL Bus & Coach, the company that owns the former Berkhof factory. If you need information, I might be able to find it! Let me know
OmG. That would be amazing if possible!?
Pretty sure this was in our workshop circa 2008 in a place I used to work, Essex.....I think Y Not are still going, based in Sudbury, might be wrong, if the booze is out of date, let me know ill come collect it......
It’s nearly all gone!! Thank it was with them for a while ! Thanks for watching
Tyneside Glass is the name of the company. On Team Valley trading Estate. 😊
Thank you will check them out. Thanks for watching !
Did you say its got rear steer but its not working? Will make manoeuvring a doddle !
We thought it did but been told it’s not. We are going to check this weekend??
That booze has a Best Before date, not Use By. If it tastes ok then it is ok! Is the dark window tint a film that could be peeled off? I'm guessing it wasn't that dark while a coach, it would have been added to keep the celebs in privacy. The glass probably has a sensible tint that would be perfect for a motorhome, with a Darkness tint stuck on the inside.
Absoulte. It’s taste normal and we are enjoying it !!!
😊😊
❤️❤️
I Would See If Those Rear Wheels Can Be Made To Steer I Worked Worked For A Large Bus Company Which Had ADL 500's With Locked Rear Wheels They Were Scrubbed Away Within Weeks If You Look At All The Modern Tri-Axles They Have Rear Wheel Steering That Dash May Go Low Air Pressure Or Overheating Try Slap The Gauges With The Flat Of Your Hand To See If That Works Was A Common Fault
We have a feeling it’s locked all the time and I know the Volvo gauges are always sticky lol thanks for watching !
Nice find ex tour bus of the darkness and skid row will you live in it all year round once completed ???
Yes we will! We have been full time in our current decker for 2 years so far !
@@six_inabus 👍👍Brilliant project all the best wishes
@@slotsandmoreslots thank you so much
Wow! How long is that beast 🤣 i live in a little village in Essex and you’d never be able to negotiate all the little roads, ps what licence do you need to drive that on the road?
You be surprise where we can get them! She is 40ft! It a bus licence for this one
Do the beds count as 'seats' so it's a bus and not a motor caravan? Or Special Motor Vehicle as mine was which meant a C licence.
We are waiting to see the log book but I believe not. It’s on a bus licence
There is no such thing as out of date alcohol! 🍺 🍷
Ahah we found out. Tastes good !
I’m pretty sure if you found £50k in that safe, we wouldn’t be seeing this video
😂😂 you definitely would! But there would be signs! Thanks for watching
The fact that they had the key was a clue the previous owners had not forgotten to empty it
@@cheifwhatJust a tongue in cheek comment mate
@@cheifwhat ahah yes made it less or a disappointment lol
Will Justin H get the chance to "Ride Again"?
Welcome anytime 😂😂😂
Hi Conrad! When ya drive bus do use bus license or have ya got class 2!! Cheers mukka from sunny rawamrsh
Big up the Sunny Rawmarsh! I’m on bus licence with the feet line as it down as a historical and new one will be bus due to its size and type.
@@six_inabus cause reason I ask? I was watching George Clark. Bloke converted a double decker bus like your self and had to take a class 2 not pcv!! So that’s why I’m wondering! Cause I can’t even drive 7.5 ton unless I take a test! I passed 18jan 1998
@@shanebrookes1878 yeah on the new stuff it will be class 2 !!
All that booze would've been what was left of the rider and taken with them.. can't fault em, I'm surprised you haven't found any lost marching powder!
Most definitely! We all benefiting now! Thanks for watching!
Hi there come a cross you videos after falling down the UA-cam rabbit hole seen your last video and about the windows the is a glass company in Newcastle upon Tyne where I am from the is a especially For bus Windscreens and windows they supply all bus manufacturers I can’t remember the name but if you watch the episode inside the factory XL about the double-decker bus the company is in that episode
Aw I love it when people fall down one! It’s not just me! Thanks for watching !!
Reckon you'll get another 1 mpg now all the weight of that booze is gone 😅
Ahah yes and all the other bits we have pulled out lol !
How much does a tour bus like that cost ?
We paid 4K for this one !
@@six_inabus Wow I tour manage bands and a new one is probably more than quarter of a million
@@harvest585 absolutely and the rest!!
@@six_inabus Yep
