I really like your choice of using wood. It gives the interior a cool vibe. Also, I have a saying, "If you can't make it out of wood, you don't need it!" 😃
I like the wood look and smell too, really comforting when I close the doors at night. Haha that saying sounds like an invitation to be challenged! I think of the mythbusters episode where Adam and Jamie made wheels for a car out of wood. Talk about doing burnouts lol... those tires WOOD literally catch on fire
I would have given 2 or 3 hands of sparurethane for exterior applications. While not exposed to the elements, it gives a nice finish and keep termites away...
this cats got like 6 coolers back there
thats a nice garage got all kindsa goodies and enough tools to build a friggin house to boot
you continue to amaze me Eric. almost feel like we are soul brothers as what is important to you is also important to me. heheh
I was fortunate to have many other Van builds before mine, to inspire my build, adding a few personal touches, of course!
Dang bud! you’re gonna be out ghost busting in comfort. :)
Amazing job !
Thanks Ben! No touching the original ghostbuster though, those are tall shoes to fill! haha
Thank You, Been wanting to do this to my van for over a year! Looking forward to starting the build after I get the rest of the mechanical work I have.
You'll get there! Get the mechanical stuff done and then the real fun begins!
Wow you are quite handy.
Good lay-out
very nice! I wish I had the equipment you have! My build is going to far less pretty, but it's only a weekender, for now, anyway!
Humble beginnings! Mine started as a weekender too, and it was very basic. I just put down a roll matt and slept on the floor. It was great because I could slide my kayak in the cargo area, and take it out at night to sleep in it. I was only using the van for fishing trips in Michigan back then. Then I decided to do this build. Anyways. Good luck with your Build, Craig!
Man what a great series, this is a wonderful conversion congrats. Other then the bed being a little small for two people what a great project. Take a look at this guys shelf as an addition in case due to weather you are forced to prepare food in the van. I thought it was pretty nifty. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! Cool way he built that fold out table top/shelf, I like that. And that guy has the same last name as me!
