This is a great layout. Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful job. I would never know that this was a city bus . It's so well put together and has ever you could want one a home bus. Love this one HOME. GOD BLESS YOU AND BE SAFE.
What a amazing bus and home. That has been my dream since i was about 12. NOW I AM 52 AND STILL DREAM. I have a electric wheelchair that i have to bring along today, so i have to find a lift that will fit in. You have made a comfortable nice and great bus. Congratulation
I’ve watched hundreds of school bus conversions and yours is the best. It’s obvious you know what your doing from top to bottom. Very impressive. I mean as soon as I saw how you converted the door I was impressed, lol. I’ve seen ppl take out those school bus doors n put RV doors, I’ve even seen them put regular house doors for a front door of a house. Your looks professional, I mean I just don’t even know what else to say.
Sir,this is an incredible rolling home!Í have seen many converted Buses,but this one is top of the pops! I pull my hat.You didn’t forget a thing.All with high accuracy and good materials,even the colour and the matching trailer makes it a great place to stay.I would instantly give my flat away for such a vehicle!Perfect for 🇺🇸,for Europe maybe a little too big as many streets are narrow! Congratulations,i’m sure this lifestyle is supreme👍🙏
I hear say you have a tractor engine that you installed yourself??? You are a true craftsman that's very seldom seen someone that could do an engine conversion and such fine cabinetry among many other features you have installed in your bus conversion!!!
I am exremely impressed. I am a carpenter myself and I have been researching bus conversions for abot three years now and yours is definately one of the best that I have seen.
wow thanks. so much. what is nice is that cabinet shops tend to through out wood that is less then 36" so i was able to get a good portion of wood for free from a neighbors wood shop
I never would have guessed this was a bus conversion. It looks like it was always an RV, inside and out. Your cabinets are really outstanding. You also have some creative ways of hiding things. Amazing job.
As a former bus builder (Orion), this guy knows his way around a bus. He's done some nice work with this bus and would have been a fun guy to work with. As I used to say at the bus factory, "think outside the bus".
@@divox9pqr just a little tidbit info...one of the scientist that worked in the Manhattan Project lived within 20 miles of our house here. He had a very large home and outbuildings that he made into a museum with all his collections of different countries;etc. His parents were missionaries way back at turn of century and possibly earlier. They collected items that were later to be considered illegal to own. But, he inherited and collected before that. Anyway, he amassed a gigantic treasured collection and would give personal tours to neighbors, friends and some others. As he got older, he was making plans to turn different items to local city and state museums; he was getting very old by that time. One of the neighbors got pissed at him for an unknown reason and called the FBI on him. THEY came and turned his estate upside down and took a huge amount of his collection from him. He cooperated fully, but was heartbroken at this tearing up of his collection They spent months there. No idea where most of it disappeared to. The FBI said certain items were returned to the proper country authorities. ( After the past 13 years of FBI treasonous actions to political parties; I wouldn't trust them to tie my sneakers). I believe a good portion of his collection most likely went to the people that took it away. My personal opinion only. He died within 1-3 yrs of them pilfering/taking off his collection. Alot was from countries like Africa, etc. He died a broken in heart sad man. He gave so much of his time, knowledge and life to this base/project at a time when it was most needed. And then the people in charge treated him like that. I found it very sad. The state had a lot of museums that missed out on receiving artifacts and antiques that he had inherited and spent a lifetime of acquiring.
I wasn’t sure I wanted to view this. I was thinking it is going to be the same as all the other bus conversions. Where everything is unfinished wood and open closets and ugly bathrooms. This took me by surprise. It is very nice. It is very well built and it looks like a home, which is exactly what I look for when viewing these conversions. It looks very roomy and comfortable. The bedroom looks great and the bathroom to great. Good job.
it certainly doesn't look like a 'conversion' you have done a wonderful job and have good reason to be very proud of your mobile home. Thank you for sharing !!!
When so much work, care and love has gone into these self-build projects, I can well understand how you fall in love with them.This is the best I've seen for how you've utilised the space.And you've cracked the problem of lack of storage too. ..Love this build. :)
Jonathan This Is One Of Best City Bus Conversions I Have Seen On You Tube And I Wont To Wish You The Best Of Luck My Friend Because You Did A Dam Good Job!!!!
What an absolutely amazing job you did on that bus. On the outside, you wouldn't expect to see a home on the inside. Bravo! to you for a incredible job well done.
Hi Jon, this is a first class conversion. I'd imagine it wasn't cheap! Could you tell readers how much you spent doing it? Include your original bus purchase as well.
@@JewelryRvMe i recently bought a travel trailer and stumbled upon this video...nice work....1000 bucks for the shell but you was able to make it the way you wanted....good looking rig.
Beautiful job, sir. I've never seen anyone turn a metal dash into a lovely piece of furniture. Your cabinets & countertops look like something from a Prevost, not a city bus. I was sad to see what looked like rust above the right taillights. Such a cool paint job, too. What's the purpose of the matching trailer? Toys? Noisy kids? Your jewelry studio? Thanks for the tour.
He said it in the bus tour...cocktails for 6...dinner for 4 and sleeping arrangements for 2 . All others must sleep in the alternative sleeping arrangements....
I like the low profile. Seems like the new Class A RV's are so tall they have trouble getting into campgrounds because they hit trees. Plus I see the drivers struggle a lot in cross winds out on the highway. Great job!
What a great video and project! Your creativity is almost unbelievable. Your technical knowledge skills are like nothing I've ever seen. I live pretty much full-time in a 34-foot older Pace Arrow with very low mileage. I absolutely love it! It's my one bedroom on wheels. Do most of the work on it myself. Don't do a lot of mechanical stuff because I don't have the shop anymore.. sold it to go on the road full time. LOL. Anyhow, thank you for such a fantastic and encouraging video documentation.
That looks like a lot of work. You are an amazing person to have the perseverance to build this. And then to have it turn out so nice! There is nothing second rate about what you have built. Wow!
Taka Yama, i scrolled through comments just to see if anyone else brought up that he keeps his potable hoses with his sewer. To each their own, but not something most RVers would do. love the build otherwise.
Wow Jonathan, and thank you so much for sharing her with us. It certainly is a beautiful rig and isn't it wonderful that you can say I did this. It must bring you and your family a lot of pleasure. My husband and I are looking to retire in a few years and want to do it in an RV. It has definitely crossed our minds to go the DIY route and create something that would provide us with most of the creature comforts of a land bound home. A bus looks like it may be the best way to go.
You pretty much went from a bus with NOTHING to an RV with EVERYTHING. Wow man, VERY NICE job!!!
You are an amazingly talented man. Well done!
Man, you are ingenious. I'd say you have a PhD in "I can Do that."
This is a great layout. Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful job. I would never know that this was a city bus . It's so well put together and has ever you could want one a home bus. Love this one HOME. GOD BLESS YOU AND BE SAFE.
Omgaaaad ive watched hours of these conversions but holy shit hands down this is the best one's ive seen ever hella good job woooow!!!!!!!!!
wow is all I can say. You definitely won for the best bus conversion. After we got inside I forgot all about it being a bus! Awesome job
Very nice. The bus home you made looks better than most of the RVs that are in the million dollar range.
What a amazing bus and home. That has been my dream since i was about 12. NOW I AM 52 AND STILL DREAM. I have a electric wheelchair that i have to bring along today, so i have to find a lift that will fit in. You have made a comfortable nice and great bus. Congratulation
Very awesome! You sold me on using a bus, only I actually love the rivets in a school bus, LOL. I can't believe you get 10 miles a gallon! Wow!
I almost fell over when he said q0 mpg, some rv's only get 7-8.
Dude, you are way more talented than most people. Very nice conversion that i would pay money for.
I’ve watched hundreds of school bus conversions and yours is the best. It’s obvious you know what your doing from top to bottom. Very impressive. I mean as soon as I saw how you converted the door I was impressed, lol. I’ve seen ppl take out those school bus doors n put RV doors, I’ve even seen them put regular house doors for a front door of a house.

What a star! Down to earth, extremely resourceful and nothing phases him. Wish he lived closer to me!!!!!
wasn't sure when I first started watching. this guy is a genius. Good job...
You can be very proud of your excellent creation Jonathan. Huge respect to you Sir.
You have some awesome talent... The bus looks awesome, job well done. Looks like a labor of love... It shows that you enjoyed working on it...
Sir,this is an incredible rolling home!Í have seen many converted Buses,but this one is top of the pops!
I pull my hat.You didn’t forget a thing.All with high accuracy and good materials,even the colour and the matching trailer
makes it a great place to stay.I would instantly give my flat away for such a vehicle!Perfect for 🇺🇸,for Europe maybe a little too big
as many streets are narrow!
Congratulations,i’m sure this lifestyle is supreme👍🙏
Outstanding in every context! You are a very creative and highly skilled guy with seemingly limitless energy. All the best to you and yours!
You ,sir, have some serious skills;that conversion is nicer than the vast majority of factory jobs.Plus it uses quality materials.Excellent work.
I hear say you have a tractor engine that you installed yourself??? You are a true craftsman that's very seldom seen someone that could do an engine conversion and such fine cabinetry among many other features you have installed in your bus conversion!!!
give him a call
Sooo True!!!! Young men now a days don't know how to change a tire or oil. I had better men back in the 70's then I get now. LOL
MAE HAY
maybe you are looking for men in the wrong places
That's a nice bus you've made.
I could live in something like that full time
Wow, what a beautiful job you did turning your bus into a gorgeous home. I love the kitchen ! Your place looks comfy & cozy ! Thank you for sharing.
This is brilliant. It must be like driving a living room :)
I am exremely impressed. I am a carpenter myself and I have been researching bus conversions for abot three years now and yours is definately one of the best that I have seen.

Wow! I'm impressed. It all looks very professional, top-of-the-line. I've never seen a nicer layout.
Extremely well done!! To see the bus before and again afterwards....wat a transformation!! You'd never know it was a city bus
Just amazing what hard work and patience can do!! Never seen such a conversion like this.
Gorgeous job ...
Having driven city bus for a decade ... wow , love it !
This guy is the one who you would ask to build you a time machine.
ABSOLUTELY
As a former bus builder (Orion), this guy knows his way around a bus. He's done some nice work with this bus and would have been a fun guy to work with. As I used to say at the bus factory, "think outside the bus".
He would have been in good company on the Manhattan Project with Einstein and others.
AGREED!

You are a fantastic craftsman. I could move out of my house and live in it and not feel like I lost out on comfort
Now this is living the life! Just start it up and go we're ever your heart desires. Very nice build. I especially like the kitchen!!!
Very good video - after 6 yrs living in 19' Class C Dodge and now 7 yrs in 43' trailer I can admire your features. Thanks.
Insane amount of times and works, your quite a handyman.
Just WOW!!!

Sir I have to say that is stunning. The ideas and craftmanship you put into that is awesome. Thank you for sharing.
Sweet conversion! Somehow I feel like you should have your own TV show.
You sure did a wonderful job. You sir are a master craftsmen, thanks for sharing it with us all.
You did a nice job converting that citi bus, great video.

How much profit could he make?
@@harorider96 momey & time in conversion, combined !
Excellent craftsmanship and looks super cozy.

Wonderful job...better than factory built! Very nice!
This has to be the best conversion of a bus I have ever seen.
You are truly talented. Awesome job.
Awesome build man! The savings compared to a used rv bus must be huge.
Just WOW what a nice incredible job you did converting this bus.Enjoy,and have fun traveling in it.It's really cool.Be well out there.
Very Impressive! Lot of different skill sets to complete the project which is even more impressive.

Such a fancy paint job and it still shows rust on the right rear panel
Gamaliel Perales yup
Wonderful. Nothing but admiration for your work, and personality too!

You did an absolutely amazing job. Looking at it, I would never have thought it once was a city bus. I love the size of this rig.
Hi Jon, this is a first class conversion. I'd imagine it wasn't cheap! Could you tell readers how much you spent doing it? Include your original bus purchase as well.
the shell was a score at $1000 but obviously it didn't run. lost track at $40k

Thanks for sharing your home it's a beautiful realistic home, much better than an RV.
I like the low profile. Seems like the new Class A RV's are so tall they have trouble getting into campgrounds because they hit trees. Plus I see the drivers struggle a lot in cross winds out on the highway. Great job!
Ok.. I've never seen a built-in dash!! Very cool! What a great idea!
you did a beautiful job, pat your self on the back.. great job
That is unbelievable! You are awesome, very nice job! What perseverance! 👏👍
really nice bus. Do you take it out much or have you ever gone for extended peroids of time. Love the trailer that you did to pull with it
yes i have full timed in it several times over the yrs. actually traveling now in it and towing the 62 vw bus : )
That's 1 Awesome build bud, I Truly Hope you get many years of enjoyment out of your RV living!!!
Great job!
What an amazing accomplishment. Thanks for sharing! A great video... hope you’re enjoying the fruits of your labor

This is one of the best bus conversions I have seen. It all seems to be really well thought out and done right. Congrats on a job really well done.
What's in the pull behind trailer? Is it really necessary?
Donnzzz
That looks like a lot of work. You are an amazing person to have the perseverance to build this. And then to have it turn out so nice! There is nothing second rate about what you have built. Wow!
Looks like a bit of rust over the right rear tail light.
You must have a lot more time on your hands that me. Nice job!!! I hope you enjoy your work for many years, you deserve it.
