Hunting RV
 
Hi All Happy Hunting!!!! Be Safe!!!!
Thanks for checking out my site everyone!

:DGreetings everyone!
I am new to this site and was hoping for some help.
Me and my hunting partner have found a military bus and we are turning it into a RV/travailing hunting camp. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can buy some camo window covering. Also if anyone else has done the same we would really like some tips.
You can check it out at http://www.2womenwhitetaildeerhunting.com
Thanks!

:)Hi everyone! we just got back and I put up some more Pictures of the stuff we scored on this weekend.
I am not sure what size motor it is...but I know it is a diesel and it is an International, we have looked all over the motor for something that says what size it is. But the guys tell me it's big enough to do what we need.

Great project. Looks like it's coming along nicely. I've had the same idea, but never done anything about it. Only thing I'd suggest is try to keep weight down where you can.

RE: Hunting RV
 
Yeah, looks real nice. Nice work, too.

I would suggest one thing if I may. Now that the wheel wells are boxed out, continue the box up to maybe window height for a couple of table tops with storage underneath.

RE: Hunting RV
 
Hey Uncle Matt
We are putting in2 sets of bunks and a bathroom. The one bunk will go over one wheel well and the other wheel well will be a closet. We have 5 campers/RV to rip out all the other stuff we need. Oh and did I mention this is being built by 2 women. The guys we hunt with are very jealous:). We got invited to go hunting in northern Minnesota, but we have to "fend" for our selfs...so we went out and bought a bus. For only $600.00...that was a steal and its a automatic!!!
I hope everyone will keep checking in, we are going up there this weekend and work on it some more.
I usually add pictures when we do more stuff.

Hey anyone know where I can find a back door to this thing?:eek:

And keep giving your ideas...its not set in stone.

What a cool project! Looks like its coming along good ladies. Did you girls insulate the walls at all? Also what are you doing for heat? Keep the updates and pictures coming, I can't wait to see it finished.

Hi Everyone!!!
Hi gmil,
We are now in the process of putting in the pluming and running the elec. Then we will be doing the insulation. Then we will put up the paneling, building of 2 bunks and putting the kitchen together. Whew...still more to do.
But it's coming along nicely.:)
Its gonna be cool!!!!

RE: Hunting RV
 
:DHi Everyone!!!!
SO I was wondering if any one works for some place or knows someone who does Logos....I was hoping not to have to pay those outrageous prices.
Also seeing how we are from all over the US, I was wondering if anyone knows of any junk yards that has a bus or 2 on their lots.
We have come up with a name for our bus....The Buck Drop Inn. Cool huh????
Thanks for all the help guys and gals.
Also I am wondering if anyone has any tips or recipes they would like to share....just e-mail me at
[email protected]
and check out the bus

uncle matt 07-19-2009 07:55 PM

I have a couple of very important questions.

First, is there going to be some sort of BBQ set up? The inside anemities are looking fine and all but hunting requires BBQ.

Second, and maybe more importantly............how much beer will that fridge hold or will there be a seperate beer only fridge?

Boogster 07-21-2009 02:23 AM

:party0005: Hi everybody!!!
I don't think there is a big enough fridge for beer...but uncle I do have the whole bottom of the bus...lol

Make sure you provide drain points at all the low points of any lines that hold or move water so that they can be drained and don't freeze.
