Converting a heavy-duty bus/coach/truck into a motorhome (page 95 of 161)

Too cool! 😃 It's so American 😜😜😜

You can also set up a relay so your generator starts automatically—it’s kinda hard to give you a clear answer here...

hi everyone

be really careful😛

HAPPY NEW

YEAR TO EVERYONE

YEAH, Wishing everyone a great and happy new year, full of travel or at least full of plans!!! 😎

Hi everyone, 🙂 I’m jumping into the middle of your conversation to add my two cents: Happy New Year to all! And also to reassure anyone struggling to get a bus up to code. I actually have a registration certificate (carte grise) for a VASP Motorhome (still got that bottle of champagne to celebrate? 😛 though I know it’s old) for a 1984 S53 bus. No issues with the driver’s door, etc., etc... At Veritas, a guy (in Angers) really helped me out. The guy from the Mines de Nantes helps you prepare the file, and if you’ve more or less followed the regulations, everything should go smoothly... I don’t log in often, but here’s my phone number: 0629449341 (but please call after the holidays, okay?)😉 Just wanted to reassure anyone who’s struggling. Maybe 2007 will be the year!

😎Watch out, time is coming soon😏 5 hours and 45 minutes to go😛😛

tonight during my work hours, I’ll be thinking of you all, and happy holidays to the DIY enthusiasts!

well, tough luck buddy😕 I’m saving a glass of bubbly for you hic hic glug glug

Heads up, 4 hours to go

hi everyone and happy new year so françois57, you gonna give us the answer to the question?

so françois57, you gonna give us the answer to the question

What, you didn’t find it?

Guess you don’t know the ultimate mathematician’s joke: Getting your other half stolen by a third party in a coach.

...................🤪........eueueueuhhhhhhh, christian.....you can't keep it for 2 or 3 days, ..............when we'll have slightly clearer ideas!!! 😛

Happy New Year to everyone... loads of plans and loads of achievements for all! 🙂

Happy New Year to everyone, best wishes for your health and projects... It's great to see your photos online... A small detail: be careful when taking photos of arc welding—you risk damaging your camera (this is certain for film cameras, I'm not sure about digital but I wouldn't try it)!!!

Otherwise, it's too early in the year for complex calculations... but without knowing the Earth's circumference (which is about 40,000 km), the elevation of your cable would be 1 meter divided by (2 PI), so roughly 159 cm... but what's the point, my dear François57 (especially since I don’t like champagne😛)??

And half of a third of a coach—that should be about 2 meters 😉

See you later! !

Wishing everyone a happy and wonderful New Year..!

All my best wishes for the little buses..😉

😉Hi there, Happy New Year to everyone!

Quick question—can you go to Veritas or another approved center outside your home department?

Hey everyone, I just wanted to wish you all my best for the new year ahead. I haven’t posted in a while, but I’m still around! Actually, for those who’ve followed my journey, I haven’t had any hiccups since last time. Knock on wood!!!! Anyway, just to let you know, I’m in the middle of some bodywork.

Once again, best wishes to all, and may you have lots of great moments.

hi everyone and happy new year 2007

my 2007 project is to create a special site for bus converters purpose: to be able to upload lots of documents, host a forum, and organize all the info from this forum in a structured way

if you have any ideas, I’m all ears! if there are volunteers to help me, I’m all ears!

ben

ps a first draft of the site should be ready in a few days !

Hey, look who's back! ;)

Hi there, benhurd,

About your 2007 idea, if you don’t mind, I’d like to chime in with a few thoughts—and a couple of reservations.

Since you haven’t stopped by in a while, have you read message 1618 on page 68 that I posted about a month ago?

I’m guessing not.

You could join us...

We’ve already discussed creating a specialized site among ourselves, but we dropped the idea. The truth is, we’d never match Voyage Forum’s traffic. Plus, the management would be a hassle.

The FFACCC has suggested we join them, which seems like a smart move. Creating a database isn’t out of the question.

But Voyage Forum’s terms of use (which you agreed to, just like the rest of us) prohibit copying information from this thread to post elsewhere!

Why create something parallel when this perfectly referenced thread (over 180,000 reads!) is where we all discuss things together? Even Nahotchan, who’s an IBM specialist, acknowledged that at our last meet-up...

The idea that several of us seemed to support was this: Create the first (and only!) French heavy-duty motorhome association affiliated with the FFACCC (they’d help us with that). Build a simple, user-friendly site that could include a database. Keep this discussion space exactly as it is today (for everyone). Those who want to join the association would benefit from its perks and the FFACCC’s support. For others, it’d stay the same as it is now—no more, but definitely no less!

I have all the documents the FFACCC sent me at home, but I’m scheduled for surgery. I’m checking into the hospital on January 16th. I suggest we meet up as soon as I’m able (I’ll keep you posted) with anyone who’s interested. We’ve been doing this for two and a half years—we’re not in a rush for a month or so...

Let’s work together on something that actually works, instead of everyone doing their own thing in their corner... That’s just my two cents, but I’ve proven for over two years that I’m all about sharing.

Let me know what you think...
