They forgot to put a swing seat on that verandah.
This actually looks awesome for tailgating, etc.
LongBus, now with smoking area
Am I alone in thinking that is VERY cool? It’s like an RV with a built-in patio.
Love it. A cheap hauler. Track day transport, atv hauler, jet ski camp vehicle. It has huge potential. And school buses are cheap. Think the neighbors will mind a black school bus parked in front of the house? Yeah, that’s what I thought you’d say.
You’re not alone at all. This kicks ass! Lots of uses for a hauler with lots of cabin space. It’s an industrial strength crew-cab.
It’s a short bus…that gives rides to hitchhiking cars?
HAHAHAHA !!!! I loooveee this point of view !
I nominate the new site design as a kludge.
ya… i miss the old tifi…
Confusdio agrees
Love the porch
I’ve seen busses like this used by rafting companies. After all you can pick up a used buss for a few thousand verses 40-50K for a new truck.
Where? I looked around a while back, and couldn’t find one for that little–both local in St Louis, and online.
You guys don’t get to the circle track races much. Every 3rd car shows up on one of these.
I was thinking it was something like that. I was trying to see where the ramps attach, but apparently the mount points are out of frame. I really miss the short tracks and dirt ovals.
I liked the kludgey ballpoint graphics on the old site.
Me 2
+1
Let’s try that again: plus one.
The “bus” is for the band. The extension is for the roadies.
Must be for the band on the run.
I posted a comment earlier, which was apparently eaten by the new site design. Go figure.
Anyway, awesome bus!
Disgruntled Timmies sought to lose their “Short Bus” reputation…
TIMMY!!!
Elementary school for both children and horses.
That is a sweet bus…
“I want a girl with a short skirt and a loooooooooooong bus!”
Win!
I don’t think that’s not an extension. It’s a normal school bus with the back wall cut out, moved forward, and welded back in place. So you get a smaller enclosed space up front, and something resembling a pick-up bed in the back. You could probably add a ramp on the back, drive a compact car up there, and have a rather functional touring RV.
I rather like it.
I don’t think that’s not a double negative
Wow. I haven’t traveled by bus in a long time but I had no idea there was such a vast difference between First Class and Coach.
What’ll you see what the airlines are planning.
That’s, “Wait ’til…” Jeez.
That would actually be really good for something like a white water rafting business. Clients up front with the rafts mostly protected in back, but still readily accessible. Also I’m not sure this is really a Kludge. it looks like a decent amount of effort was put into making it look and function well
And if the river’s too low for white water rafting this season, just put everyone on a raft in back and ride ‘em around awhile— still a thrill a minute. Still could use a helmet, too.
I like the clever adaptation of the rub/bump/reinforcing strip at the roofline where the cabin disappears…
I think there are two hacks here:
First, a regular-sized bus was cut down to a short one with a short bed.
Second, the bed was extended.
This is really cool.
This is why we mainstream out kids. Some kid on a short bus had very big dreams.
Guys, this isn’t a bus. It’s a Stretch Semi. Get it right.
Now thats cool, they not only get to take their house wherever they go, but they take the garage too.
Most pointless thing I’ve ever seen.
Like was said above, it’s for hauling my mustang. Only it’s a drag car not a stockcar. The wife and kids won’t go to the track without a proper bathroom/kitchen/bed and I can’t afford a RV. This was $5100 complete!
That’s brilliant, good job. It doesn’t deserve to be on this website.
wow awesome work man
friend of mine and I came up with an idea very similar to that to take a racecar to the track.
he also lives not too far from a used bus lot.
Nice wheels.
that’s pretty decent craftsmanship, Awesome party bus.
hell you could even use it as a stage.
That is pretty cool!
all it needs is a hot tub then its a custom limo
If you don’t like leaving your car at the park-and-ride, just run ‘er right up here.
Public transportation segregation hasn’t quite ended yet in some parts of the deep south.
Bloody private school kids! They’ve got a matte black bus with rims and a patio? Servants must be in the white Lexus on the other side.
HYPERDRIVE ACTIVATE
Where can I get one? Perfect for hauling domo derby cars to the track!
It’s from the new MTV series called “Pimp my Bus”
I said a tour bus with a BLACK PORSCHE
As the obesity epidemic starts to claim more lives, funeral parlours are forced to upgrade their hearses.
WANT
That’s my uncle’s bus. I’m being 100% serious. He took out the seats inside, and now there’s three couches. And it is completely street-legal. He uses it for demo derby cars, tractor pullers (super modified class), or 4 fourwheelers. He made it himself: he owns an auto body repair shop.
No, no! You guys have it all wrong! This is typical band LongBus. The band can perform while traveling. It’s also good for parades, 4th of July concerts, and the traveling circus.
