Default Orange Force One Party Bus

Greetings from Tucson,

here are some pics of Meck77's ultimate tailgate party bus being built in Tucson. For those who dont know, Meck77, tailgate coordinator of www.orangemane.com has purchased a retired Greyhound Diesel Coach which we are converting into a party bus for all the bronco fans from the Mane. Sattelite flatscreens, crazy audio, bar and slide-out BBQ are just some of the features. Here are a few pics of the framing/plumbing/interior. Check back soon for more pics. Peace.

It may not be close to being finished, but it's still starting to look sweet!

Kick ass, that's bad dude!

Seriously thinking of flying out to Denver this year with the wife to attend a home game. Meck almost has me convinced and these pics may just put me over the edge to commitment.

Looking nice so far!

Looks like they have the insulation, bowels and nervous system on the beast close to done. It's further along than it might seem. Now the Aritiste' can take over.

Damn fine bus!! Looks like it should even make John Madden envious when it's completed. Just one question. What's with the "Dale Carter" card in the collage?? Ex-Bronco or no, that guy is just BAD KARMA and should be removed immediately before the bus explodes.

Otherwise, keep up the great work. I am in awe

Wow!! Nice work fellas! I just got home a few minutes ago and saw these pics for the first time. I have to agree with the Dale Carter card DenverTucsonLink that one has to to go! Tell the Vegan he did some killer work on the BBQ! I'm going to rest up for a couple days and I'll be down there in a few days to work on the bus!
