    Oh dear lord....I wouldn't do it with that POS...lol. I could have modified mine into a fine camper, but I kept it versatile enough to be utility based and easily prepped for multiple purposes.

    After some internet research, I probably CAN do the stairs in the rental, but it would cost about the same amount as the flooring for the rest of the entire house! Between that and the tenant having supposed balance issues and having already, supposedly, fallen down the stairs once already (last owner didn't even have a hand rail), and mentioned how slick the new floor is, it really sounds like carpet is the way to go. I'm not sure how weird it will be to carpet JUST the stairs, but I don't really care. Thanks for all the help.

    Use to know a dude on CSC that retrofitted a ambulance into a toy hauler / bike garage......TFOG would probably know who im talking about.

    I would retro a old short bus into a battle wagon but for now I guess I'll settle on changing rotors and doing a bleed on the Buick brakes at some point and daydream.

    I don't know the guy from CSC personally, but I remember him talking about it.

    Daydreams are okay, Mazin. The way stuff seems to work out sometimes, there might very well be an opportunity that develops and lends itself to your desired purposes at a reasonable cost.

    I don't know who they are, but if they can bend and weld up a custom aluminum lightbar, I'm ready to write a check for it.

    Aaron Brucker is a great guy. He's the one with the tailgating rig.

    He can build anything you want.

    He moved from the location in Longmont, and I haven't had the time to go by his new place, but it's more down south.

    Alternatively, I'll have my tubing bender up and running in a couple weeks (got an email saying it would ship later this week), and I'd be more than happy to help you build it.

    If you can bend 2" aluminum tubing, and can weld aluminum...………I'm very interested.
