Couple Transforms Bus into Luxury Mobile Home | Full Conversion by

Follow Mela and Don from Rehabit8 as they transform a 1996 MCI D3 coach bus into a fully functional, off-grid luxury mobile home.
From demolition to design, every stage of this 30-minute conversion reveals the craftsmanship, creativity, and determination behind one of the most impressive bus-to-home builds ever.
Watch how they strip the bus to bare steel, treat rust, insulate with natural wool, and install skylights, solar panels, and custom cabinetry — all by hand. Inside, modern comforts meet clever design: a Murphy bed, full kitchen with handmade wooden countertop, pull-out couch, composting toilet, and complete off-grid power system with lithium batteries and rooftop solar.
This is more than a renovation — it’s a lifestyle shift toward freedom, sustainability, and minimalism on wheels. Every detail reflects love, precision, and the dream of living anywhere without limits.
