Hey, next time you want to support a flimsy roof get a couple of lengths of 2x2 alloy box and put it on the topside, then when you screw the roof panels up you have something solid to screw to. It also makes a good base for solar panels and you won't need to make additional holes. Works great. 👍

Back in the early 80's we bought a 1959 Ford D bus from a church up the road and built the inside into a camper. We used the original seats turning two of them from the right side backwards and mounting them on the left side to have two tables and 4 bus seats behind the driver's seat. Built wood walls and frames and put two double beds, bunk style behind the seats with the bathroom behind that all on the driver's side. On the passenger side we built a large countertop with a double basin sink, behind that was an apartment size gas stove converted to propane, a full size fridge behind that, a set of single upper & lower cabinets and 2 sets of single bunks behind that. We mounted the air conditioner in the back upper glass hole of the emergency door. The great thing about it was being steel it never leaked. Of course the bad thing about it was, being steel the AC could only keep the back half of the bus cold and camping in the winter was just stupid cold, lol. We only camped in it in winter once...that was more than enough, but we'd camp in it every summer in the Smoky's and at Dale Hollow and at Land Between the Lakes at Buchannon. Fortunately all the windows in the bus still worked so going down the road wasn't too hot and the driver's seat had a fan mounted up in the corner of the roof beside the big mirror the driver used to watch the kids with. Top speed on flat ground was 60mph as that big bus only had a little 292 under the hood. If I had it now I'd still camp with it, but I'd add another AC unit on the roof at the front end, lol.

Haven’t finished the whole video yet. What you scraped off the roof that stuck to the osha flip flops was lap sealant. Old roof penetrations could be radio/tv antenna and solar connections. Your roofs probably good with all you did. If you have problems try the dicor over top on seams/penetrations. It seems to seep into cracks and holes if you put it on while it’s hot out. Get some rv toilet tank drop ins, really helps with the odor, and breaking up anything in the black tank. Nothing worse while on the road than black tank issues. If you have septic you can add a dump connection in your line. Can’t wait to see family trips in this beauty.

I love that the whole family got involved and the kids see how you can clean something up, whether it is a car, rv or house. Important to have that vision. Good work!

Thank you I am blessed

I'm a little late to the party but glad to see the RV coming along. I was learning as you were. I don't know about anything wrong with it. A family that's willing to work hard, side by side with you is absolutely awesome! I hope the mechanical part goes easy for you's and looking forward to seeing the inside lights come in.

Love this project and having the whole family involved. I know if I was a kid and got to do something like this, I’d never forget it and I’d always treasure the memory. Great video and channel my dude

[@Jon_2218]

Mom, dad, their children, all the associated animals (great family, hard working) on this project, kudos! I've now subscribed to your channel after this post popped up on my KZbin interests. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this, look forward to more adventures, Thank you! PS, those 2 front windows over the cab notorious for water leak causing rot damage. Re-seal them.

I always thought I was pretty good at solving mechanical issues, but that 52:45 deserves a "country boy can survive" clap 👏 🙌

[@Sleeperdude]

Yes!!!!!!

I think it's awesome how you include and teach your kids. Treating kids like they have a brain and are competent is what we need more of these days. Blessings to you and yours. Love your animals. You are such a beautiful family
