Bluebird Bus Conversion Project & Cross Country Trip

[delatlanta1281]

thats funny, that is where I had in mind to take him. They just remodeled the place about a year or so ago. Its a great place. They just put a Yard House out there but its South Beach prices.

My favorite dartboard in Miami is in the abbey. 2 bartenders are from ATL and are super cool. Its a great bar with good prices. Theres also that speakeasy bar with the red light in the alley off of alton... that place can be pretty cool as well.

Hey man I consider any cross country road trip a great success! I love looking through your Tumblr and envy your photography and post skills. I want to get better with my camera on this trip. Too bad we seem to be heading opposite directions right now, it would be a blast to meet up. Maybe in a couple months as we drift back toward the West Coast we can find you guys. Thanks for the support!

Thanks man! I really appreciate that. Sounds like we are both heading the same direction, I just have a heads start on ya! Our end goal is somewhere near Portland, so maybe we can meet up when your almost home.

If you crash there go to the abbey and have a beer. My favorite bar in sobs
Also if you come through Atlanta, hit me up.

Man that would be so great. I have been scouring maps the last couple nights looking for a place to park in Miami, I really appreciate the offer

Holy shit this is awesome. I'm jealous of your adventure and also jealous of your gf. I can barely get mine to get off the damn couch to go ride a bike. Safe travels and please post some awesome pictures of the journey.

Well if you get in the Miami area and want to park or crash for a night, I have a parking lot big enough for you to stay free on South Beach. 5th and Lenox to be exact. Im sure a few R3v'rs would be glad to show you a bit of Miami.

Vedubin I would be happy to share the cost of the build with you guys. In a few more days I should have a better idea on the final price tag and I will write up a post about it. We will be cruising through Miami, the keys, Fort Myers and Tampa before leaving FL. We are always down to grab beers if you wanted to meet up!

That's awesome!!! Wish I could build one, but insufficient funds :(

I would love to see a video walkthrough of the rig! My gf and I are loving the pictures, and would love to see more. Both of us would love to take a similar journey at some point in our lives.

We took her out this evening on a shakedown run, everything rode very well! Only a few rattles here and there. The old girl is a little loud and a little slow but great fun to cruise in. We are pretty much done with the construction, just have to finish a lot of little details. Then do some mechanical work/preventive maintenance and we are as ready as we will ever be to hit the road

Sub'd! I like where this is going. Thanks for taking a bunch of pix and I look forward to the journeys pix.

I think one of the coolest parts is that your GF is totally involved with this. Bravo to both of you and GL! :up:

I am very lucky to have a GF who is down for adventure and travel, and is a great help with any project

Very cool project and defiantly following... Since I'm sure none of us are knowledgeable on this would you mind sharing what your build out costs are? Not to be nosy but your build will most likely inspire others if it was known to be in the reach of some. But keep the pictures coming, If you are in South Florida not that far, hit me up, Id be happy to lend a hand.
