I have never seen a bus this size in my life.
I got the full history of it while we walked around the outside, taking in the murals and art on the sides.
The tour bus was very old, but had been the biggest and most luxurious of that era. This one had allegedly been used by the Rolling Stones for a few of their American tours in the 70s. Now it wasn’t going anywhere, the wheels had been taken off and it was sitting on a foundation. The owners needed me to look at the old HVAC system they had on board, and see what I could do about replacing it so they could live there as a home. It didn’t take long to see that the entire HVAC system was as dead as disco, and that it needed to be removed. There were several positives to this situation, I told them, namely the old air conditioner was so huge that they would basically have an entire extra room was it was removed. Since they wanted to live in the place as a house, I told them not to get a central AC installed inside, but to mount it on the roof, or set it on the ground next to the bus. HVAC tech has come a long way and they would need a much smaller one than the old one, but it was still smart to keep it outside. They also asked me about setting up a geothermal heat pump in the ground nearby, so they wouldn’t have to be on the city power grid.
