  • Scott and Heather Bennett's self converted MCI Bus . Conversion completed in 13 weeks. Coach now has a couch and beds for my two girls. Also has an area that can be used for dining but we generally sit on the couch and eat as a family.

      Trade Show Tom not me. 85% of the buses have their shower separate from the toilet. Why I am not sure because it just takes up room. The only difference about this one is I believe both areas had a small sink.
      But it was a very nice bus.

    • @ScottBennettMusic
      @ScottBennettMusic  5 месяцев назад

      @@shandelebroyles1099it indeed has 1.5 baths. One full bath with a toilet sink and shower and a master half bath in the master bedroom with a sink and toilet.
      Two toilets, two sinks, one shower.

    Windows are being added to the bedroom and other locations. :) the coach isn't finished yet. This is how far we got in 13 weeks. There's now a couch and bunk beds are being built this next summer. And to the guy who thumbs downed because I'm not talking in the video and there's no video of the outside, this interior video was uploaded to RUclips only to share with my bus club website (busconversions.com) and they all have seen the exterior already so I deleted your grumpy comment lol.

    This is gorgeous, but it looks too much like a house. Which isn’t a bad thing. I suppose that’s the ultimate goal, in which case, these people succeed 100%. I prefer to maintain some of the bus feel for my personal taste, but this is absolutely beautifully done.

  • @jameslaidler4259
    @jameslaidler4259 6 лет назад

    I see how you fitted the washer and dryer in, seems no dining space or couch really. Only thing I would have done with the en suite bathroom and breaker room is switch it with the main bathroom. Shift the kitchen around a bit to accommodate. And maybe done a tiled tub/shower. Just my thoughts. I'll need to get a bus of my own to try it with.

    • @ScottBennettMusic
      @ScottBennettMusic  6 лет назад

      James Laidler it has a couch. As mentioned in the comments, this was a 13 week build. Wasn’t time to finish it. Has a couch and dining area. And yes, build yourself a bus and you can make it exactly as you like it.

  • @gerdgrubel902
    @gerdgrubel902 7 лет назад +1

    amazing build. question: how to aviod moisture in the bus? isnt it dangerous because mold could appear (inside) walls and stuff? just curious...

    • @ScottBennettMusic
      @ScottBennettMusic  7 лет назад +1

      Gerd Grübel bus is climate controlled at all times. There is no moisture. Moisture introduced from shower or propane cooking stove gets vented out of the coach. All of the wood walls you see are triple coated on all sides with an expensive water based clear coat sealer.

  • @bigjoe2458
    @bigjoe2458 7 лет назад +1

    very nice. I would have added some corner round in the corners for a little-added touch. Is that real wood in the shower?

    • @ScottBennettMusic
      @ScottBennettMusic  7 лет назад

      BIG JOE 245 corner round has been added. This video was taken before the coach was completed. We performed the conversion in 13 weeks so we are still finishing up little things here and there. Shower is "barn wood" tile. So it's made to look like authentic barn wood but in fact it is tile.
