Forget all of the fancy rich rides. This man is living my dream and the dreams of anyone worth his salt. Worth every effort & penny for this bus. If he ever sold it don’t drop your price one dollar.
Been repowering/ updating my 89 Fleetwood Limited (FERD) and this guy is a real inspiration for me on my RV project. I converted my Coach from a EFi 460 180 HP gas engine to a turbo charged 5.9L diesel, like he did, and should see 14 + MPG out of mine. Only mine puts out 400 HP at the flywheel and turns a 5 Speed Allison transmission through a 356 rear end gears with Limited Slip in the rearend. :) 1850 RPM at 70 MPH. Hoping to have my remodel finished enough to where we can get out on the road again. Really love that old 47. Reminds me of my Grandfathers old Ford pickup he drove as a work truck back in the 50's... I'm old too, and just cut off my pony tail last December..... LOL
Definitely a labor of love! Thank you for introducing us to Max and his innovative skoolie~ Loved how he repurposed his moms bed and found a solution for every square inch. Oh Canada ! BTW did you have any issues getting back across the US border? What documentation was needed?
I really admire and have the highest respect for individuals who have the ingenuity, talent and guts to follow through on these projects. So absolutely astounded by the quality of this restoration! Thank you for sharing your rig sir!!! I see a LOT of those Travco RVs on and off the roads of America in all my travels. Got a tour and the floor is surprisingly low to the ground inside. A whole new kind of feel for traveling. Pretty neat.
Thank you for having max show his skoolie vintage Rv. He did a great job with the built of it. Very nicely done. I love seeing videos like this. Thank you Shawna and Brian. Great job!
Great video for an awesome rig. I love how smart he is about everything dealing with his rv. It really is his baby and he is proud of it without being boastful. Thanks for showing us this beast... his bus is pretty cool too.
Hi Brian and Shawna! I didn’t know how else to get a hold of you but I wanted to let you know I miss you guys very much and I wish you making videos. I really miss you both. I don’t get on social media. Just RUclips. I wanted to get hold of you to let you know I miss you and love you both. I keep checking for your videos. Just wanted to let you know I love you and miss you no matter what! 🤗🥰💋 I will pray 🙏 you both are ok! Love you! One day I would love to meet you.
@@LyfUninterrupted Oh ok! I just miss seeing you both and your puppies. (Digs) I’m a loyal fan to your videos. I had fun watching them and following you. I just miss you guys. Can you will you keep in touch with me? I’m so glad you both are ok and I thought you both were busy with work as well. You know I love you both and the dogs as well. Keep well and safe. Keep in touch! I love you ❤️ 🤗
I know this question is not about this bus. Sorry, I'm interested in how your rebuilt engine is doing on your Class A? I contacted the company you had do the job about doing my V10 also, Would like your opinion? Thanks
Hi Kenneth! The engine is running great! It does burn about 1/2 quart of oil every 2000 miles or so, but that is to be expected for a V10. The Ford manual states burning 1 quart every 1000 miles is normal.

Thank you! Will do!
I seen it in Oroville, Washington
I don't know why he didn't show the rest of the house. It looks beautiful outside and in the kitchen area.
Max and his wife didn't want to show the bedroom or bathroom.
Is there a video of the bathroom and bedroom?
No. Max and his wife didn't want to show that part of the bus.
