Fatal Paint has leveled up.

That is from Fatal Paints new bus.

http://www.fatalpaint.com/images/bus_pic.gif

This is Fatal Paints Bus in 2003 when it was purchased, pre-conversion.

I will take more pictures asap.

The Bad.
Its 40 feet long.
Wiring most likely needs to be all redone.
The front passenger side window needs to be replaced.
The tires look to have decent thread, but who am i to judge.
It needs a paint job.


The Good.
Its 40 feet long.
The motor only has 60,000 miles on it.
Its registerable as a RV also insurable under the same.
I am told in its current state, it would carry us just fine to and from oroville.
As a RV we can drink while Cowboy drives us arround.
We can spray paint it black and tag "FATAL PAINT" all over the damn thing.
The Airhorn pulling into the first event we have it up and running.

---------------

That all being said, Fatal Paint IS accepting donnations to our "Pimp my Bus" fund.

[Brewtt]

Leveled up eh? That's +2 at least. ;)

This is going to be interesting. Interesting as in ROCK!

So... it runs fine?

[Kitty]

it has an airhorn!!?
SAWEEET!

good thing cowboy has PILOT: truck ;)
wiring isn't bad - just time consuming
BTWm I think this gives us a +2 for save vs coma/death http://cybernations.net/images/happy.gif

[ajnin]

i am told it runs fine, the wiring was chewed through by rats. But the guy lived in it for about 2 years after the rats and ran full electricty to it, fridge, micro, stove, a/c. so i guess that means it atleast wont catch fire. and of course i am sure most of it isnt even needed. most of the crap has been stripped off it. i do kinda wish the wheelchair ramp was still on it as well as the top front sign. we could have a digital marquee scrolling "fatal paints here to kick your ass".

oh yeah, you cant see it, but it has 2 doors.

ok so heres the fun part. i have a few days to find out where we can store this thing. suggestions are very welcome.

[Soren]

Rest are in Colfax or Auburn or elsewhere.

[ajnin]

the only problem i seewith it not being in someones yard or land, is that a storage place may not let us work on it there. i will call and find out.

[Brewtt]

Well, none of us have yard/land. No way around that.

[ajnin]

i did find one place in NC that will take us. $50 a month.

i told him what it was, and that we would need to be working on it. he said theres no power, but we could use a generator. its open 7 day a week, 7am - 7pm.

if we cant find a piece of property somewhere, then thats the place.

[Puppet]

thats awsome. damn... well, it sure outdoes the hummer in terms of "An extension of ones manlyness". lol... it will probably boost the intimidation factor. lol.

[Kitty]

um... we live in a place that has FREE RV storage. we're allowed to store RVs for whatever... in a fenced in RV yard

[Brewtt]

That sounds sweet for getting it into shape for Shogun.

How long until you move?

[Kitty]

that depends on how long it takes cowboy to get his stuff together ;) if he even still wants to move

[cowboy]

i can fix it well take some time

[ajnin]

i figured if i bought a bus, cowboy would actually log on. ;)

[ajnin]

from the fire's of destruction will come a new re-birth.

[ajnin]

$250 - registration

$210 - gas for bus

$29 - gas for borrowed truck/beer for owner of truck

$36 - dump run

last night me, brewtt, and my moma kicked the busses dirty ass. its pretty much been cleaned(round 1) fromm front to back, fully vaccumed and swept out. more stuff has been demo'ed, brewtt got carried away when i left for dinner. we moved the kitchen counter out and found out where the rats actually lived.. the bathroom was jsut a hangout. it was insane. good news once gone, the bus no longer has a rat smell.

its really looking nice now. fatal40 for the win.

[Brewtt]

more stuff has been demo'ed, brewtt got carried away when i left for dinner.

I beg to differ. :D

[ajnin]

363.00 insurance

the bus is looking awesome. theres two love-seats compliments of soren. the lights work besides the blinkers. if we cant get them fixed we will just have to rely on our chase car and lots of hand signals. we have counter tops, and seats, and a cabnet(sp). the batteries are good also. it starts all by its self... lets rock.

[Puppet]

you guys takin this to pirates vs ninjas or whatever?

[Brewtt]

Hours this week at bus... 27+
Batteries... ~$380

Hearing the clean bus start on it's own... priceless. :D

[Brewtt]

Well... here it is.

Fatal Paint's new scenario bus, "Fatal 40" (It's 40 ft. long)

It's looks amazing on the inside now... a huge difference from Sat.

[Soren]

[Brewtt]

Fatal 40's first scenario trip was a big success! We were the envy of all. :)

Can't wait for the next one! :D

[ajnin]

other than the lights telling us we are on fire, and low on water, Fatal 40 was awesome. ran hard and strong, just like every member of fatal.

[Soren]

my legs are like, wtf man. :D

[Kitty]
