We purchased our 1989 Toyota Coaster, 4.2 litre bus from ebay about 1 month ago (Feb 2007).

It was a huge thing for us to do as we are both very new to the world of the internet.

Luckily for us, we found a top bloke from Kalbarri who was selling one of his tour coaches.

The motor was reconditioned less than 4 yrs ago, air-con compressor last year and the alternator 3 yrs ago.The outside body has a few rust spots and needs a little TLC. It has a long range fuel tank, good tyres mechanically ready to drive anywhere, making it an ideal campervan!

We both have pretty clear ideas of what we want to do with it and agree, mostly, on just about all design issues. Of course, it wouldn’t be natural for a married couple to agree on everything but so far, so good

Welcome to our website!

We are so excited to be doing this in conjunction with the renovation of our new bus, a 1989 Toyota Coaster Bus Deluxe 22 seater.

We will be bringing you lots of information and pictures on the whole process from stripping the bus back to it’s shell, through to design, construction and all the things we learn along the way.

My lovely wife, Sheila, will also be sharing her thoughts and design plans on the most important parts of the bus, the bathroom and kitchen.
