Vista-Dome

Vista-Dome

A Vista-Dome is type of Skoolies bus conversion that was inspired by the original railway Dome cars. The traditional Skoolies Vista-Dome bus is constructed by cutting the top off a VW Minibus and welding it to a matching hole in the roof of an old School bus. There are many variations on this theme of custom bus conversion where people have hacked a variety of vehicles together. Almost all of these types of busses are lived in, some also used as businesses. The term Vista-Dome for this type of Skoolies bus was coined by Lisa Steenson and Lori Dieda in there board game Redneck Life.

The best place to go to see and tour Vista-Dome Skoolies is to go to the Rainbow Gathering.
