Our family is transitioning to full time RV'ing over the next month. Right now we have a 30' travel trailer, and pull it with a Suburban. For various reasons, we feel a bus conversion is our best bet for an upgrade, which will hopefully take place by the end of this year.
For those of you unfamiliar, a bus conversion is when you take a charter bus or a school bus (in our case, a charter bus), and convert it to a motor home. We are hoping to get our hands on a 40-45' that is already partially converted. Our biggest concern off the top is making sure there is seating for everyone.
I'm looking for input on the best way to get seating back into the bus. Buy seats from that make/model, and add seat belts? Take the bus to a van conversion or a bus conversion place and have them put new seats in? I'm also going to ask this question on the bus conversion forums when I get posting privileges, but so far it doesn't seem that actually keeping or putting in seating in a bus conversion is something very many people do.
Any resources or input would be greatly appreciated!
