Thanks for the video. Fabulous job. My latest conversion is a Renault Trafic LWB van into a "Touring Van". We don't sleep in the van but use it for trips around Australia and stop for a cup of tea or coffee in nice spots. We sleep in Caravan Park cabins. This is the fourth van I have done in the last 30 years ( I am 80 now). Our van setup is removable in 15 minutes in case we need to fit facilities for a gopher. Thanks again for giving me inspiration to do more in our van.

It looks amazing, looks like it was made by professionals. i did the floor of my van based on yours and got some other ideas from you too. I just finished my bed. i haven't done any cabinetry work because i have been traveling. Thank you for posting ALL THE BUILD UP VIDEOS. They were really helpful and clear to understand especially for me who had no idea about anything. God bless.

It's inspiring! I'm going to use some of these ideas with our Scamp trailer.

Heck yeah!!! You have done an amazing job with your van. My boyfriend's parents had a 1981 Ford clubwagon van. His mother has been in a wheelchair for a long time and that's why they had it. They actually adopted him and his two siblings so that they wouldn't be split up. Anyway they gave him that van for his birthday this past Dec. We haven't started yet but we want to. Can't afford much due to being on disability but it really doesn't take a lot just to get started and stay close to home. I hope.

Great Van build learned a lot. Mostly on the electronic end. Also like the oven. My friend brought that camping. I thought it was silly until they made garlic bread, french fries, baked potatoes with cheese. The low-tech toilet is a no no. Cassette toilet is the way to go. You went to all this trouble and didn't raise the roof. Not a fan of the bed, that's got to be uncomfortable, or the truck box on the back of the truck. Better platform bed would have given you all the storage you had in the truck box. Impressed by many of the items. I'm sure it works well for you. I'm getting ready to build out a weekend van camper. 3-5 hours any Direction with one or two night stays. My wife is concerned about security. I like those cameras and sensors!

I'm glad to have finally seen someone put the bed on the right side of the van. I just bought a van, and I plan to put the bed on the right side because I have had two vehicles hit or sideswiped while parked, in the past. And I plan to do some stealth camping and do not want to receive an impact on the side I'm sleeping on. It may never happen, but I'm pretty sure it would be pretty traumatic and possibly injurious

You did a great job. Remember that ALL dogs must be leashed in Nat'l Parks, etc. Check out the regs before you take yr 4-foot on yr hike. Occasionally, he/she may bff ave to stay home, in the van. If its hot, be sure to put up yr insulated window panels & keep the air moving. You guys did a great job!

Great built with very good ideas. It looks like you are using a 110v dorm fridge. I've use them for years on my vans. They evacuate the heat through the side wall. It looks like you have completely blocked those walls. It will be dramatically more efficient is you let those walls to breath.

My husband never has an opinion about the van builds I watch. However, he is totally impressed by what you have done. How is the oven working out? Have you ever thought about raising the roof to your van and adding an a/c? Enjoy your journey!
@IanSkelley
@IanSkelley 6 жыл бұрын
Dawn, thanks for the kind words. The oven is great! We use the stove more than the oven, but the oven is great for storage when not in use. If I had the money I might raise the roof....but maybe not....if I were going to live in it full time, I probably would. But I like the simplicity of the standard roof. I am looking at adding a regular window ac unit in the back door. I will make a vid on that as soon as I start....It is getting hot here in Florida now!!!! So the heat is making me get on it. :)
