Van Conversion / Re: Bus conversion for tall guy...

You're right Kryten, but i dont think that the roof is the problem, i was more thinking about the floor.. I was wondering if adding insulation to it would cause a problem.

Thanks for your answers Nick and Kryten!

Well ive considered it, but i would really prefer if i could stand up... And i really dont want to be forced to always have my neck crooked because there is 1 inch of height missing in the bus you know? And yes i've seen some videos where bubble foil was used, i just dont know if it would be enough insulation.. I know i can stand up in a school bus since i've spent all my highschool in one to get home, the only question is how will the insulation affect that.

By the way i am sorry if my english does not always make sense, im french so writting in english is sometimes a struggle..

Van Conversion / Bus conversion for tall guy...

Hi everyone!

Im new on this forum even though i've been reading about van conversion for a while...
So to put it simply, i want to convert a 18 passenger school bus into an adventure mobile. Unfortunatly i am quite tall, 6'1... So i was wondering if anyone knew anything about the maximum interior height for a bus.. I looked it up online but the thing is i need to insulate the floor and the roof pretty well since i live in canada, so i fear that this insulation is going to reduce the height of the bus interior... If someone have any knowledge on this topic feel free to share it with me, it would be really appreciated! I really hope i dont have to raise a bus roof to be honest :o...

Anyway, thanks vanlifers!
