I hate to be a downer...but this has been all over the news and I don't get why. Bus conversions have been around for ages. From the most basic to the most space shuttle like...
It's a nice project and congratulations to Hank - I converted a van myself recently - but I fail to see the wow factor here.
He has a website, that's the reason.
That, and he's good at selling the dream.
Through some eyes, his website looks like freedom.
He himself acknowledges that it has been done before, but he wanted to explore it further. I don't think claimed anywhere that this was somehow revolutionary or ground breaking. Why does it have to be so? Is there anything wrong with appreciating a well executed and beautiful project (with great documentation)?
