Taking the Short Bus – Borrowed Blog
November 6, 2011
A few months ago a friend forwarded this blog to me ( from another WordPress Blogger ) and while I try to avoid too many borrowed blogs, information has to come from somewhere… why not another blogger my readers may not follow? Anyway, I love what they did to this bus, check it out…
Can you even believe this is the interior of a bus? here is some of the copy from the original blog…
“It never gets old having a boyfriend whose father, Tony Jose of Linekin Bay Woodworkers, is a master woodworker. Whenever we visit their home in Boothbay, ME there is always a new project in the shop we get to drool over, whether it’s a gorgeous wooden boat or even a 1959 Chevrolet Viking short bus. The latter was a project Maine architect Will Winkelman brought to Tony this past year, and is now featured as the cover story of the Maine Home + Design September issue. The owner of the vintage bus had enlisted Winkelman to renovate it into a camper. Winkelman turned to Tony, a master in custom boat building, to outfit the interior with custom woodwork and cabinetry. The resulting camper is spectacular, especially due to Tony’s fine craftsmanship. Winkelman praises Tony’s expertise in the article, “He sculpts wood like it was putty”. And he’s really not exaggerating. Click here to see the full story and the original blog.
