Most of the entire build was completed in 2017. Slowly over time more of the little things were done. The main alterations to the bus itself include a roof raise of 1ft underneath the windows to raise them up. The inner ceiling is now around 7ft. The front and back windows were left low so the front and back integrity was held intact. A deck was also added to the back of the roof with the later with welds and deck wood.
