What would it take to convert this back to a motorhome? What's required for a COF? Mechanically sound? Electrically sound? (Driving lights etc) Do you have the last COF sheet? g377y (182) • 8:59 pm, Sun, 14 Dec

Hey, it wasn't a motor home, it was a school bus. We removed seats and converted it to a living and sleeping space. Not sure what's required for a COF. Engine still starts first pop, one battery needs charging, so Will probably need to be replaced. All driving lights work. Internally its been professionally wired for 240V. No paper work for last CoF, was a Ritches school bus in Whangarei. dazzel1 (83) • Sunday, 14 December 2025
