Licensing and thoughts.

I went to issaquah and I’ve already got the bus converted to a vehicle type “MH” and have plates. No inspections no nothing. I got the run-around from kent licensing, as they were demanding an emissions test (try wedging a 40′ bus in the emissions stalls!) and scale weight.

I’m considering removing all the bucked rivets from the front and back and lifting, however, I’m concerned about how much strength I can put back into the fasteners – I don’t have the tooling to put bucked rivets back in. This is why I have been considering a sloped front and rear, because the inherent strength of the “book ends” of the bus are still there.

I am really looking forward to working on the skinning project so I can get it prepped for paint before it gets too deep into fall. I’d love to be out working evenings in the dark inside the vehicle instead of the exterior.
