Fundraising to repair our Mr B Bus, our home on wheels
Donation protected
Hello!
My name is Jess, I am fundraising to repair our home on wheels: also known as the Mr Beast Bus, or Big B.
The Beast Bus is a 1988 ford dormobile, also known as a smiley bus.
We have recently acquired this van with our aim to use it as our home- on wheels, and to provide a load of awesome memories for little guys / family when they visit and stay, and to allow the opportunity to fully focus on our record label, run our gigs & to record guitar in all sorts of cool places, and be able to put more into all of our creative endeavours.
This is very soon to be our home on wheels, we have repaired the electrics and wiring as everything was out of whack/corroded or incorrectly wired, the engine is now running smoother, free play in the steering is sorted, back brakes and suspension greased, new front tyres as the old ones were very old and torn.. the four back tyres do need doing but that is not on the MOT list for whatever reason!
and after some discovery, the parts of which need welding is a bigger job than initially envisioned, and it is a vital part to getting this project running safely.
After the welding there is the break lines and break hoses to replace, and the back tyres, so I am aiming to raise a minimum of £1500 to complete the major repairs and get everything rolling and safe!
The process will be documented on our Instagram as we go!

Break lines and break hoses both nearside and offside, we will be doing ourselves.
The main aim of this van is to afford to live, and live freely, and stay creative.
Axle king pins nearside and offside, and the biggest job of welding suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength both offside and nearside.
