    Looks really slick! Great job. Any rust issues? I've heard the pre-2004 or pre-2005 models are absolute rust buckets but Mercedes changed the paint they used or something...?

      Thanks for the feedback, i no longer have the van but it had not issues with rust while i had it. They started galvanizing the body which helped.

      @@dhow5732 Ah, fair enough. Nice one. I'm hoping to get one this year but there aren't many decent ones about (in my price range)!

      ​@dhow5732 did you sell the van you done a cracking job. What was the cost of all the work you done for materials cheers

    • @dhow5732
      @dhow5732  9 месяцев назад

      Hi Barry, yeah i sold it unfortunately. I estimate up to £4000 for all the materials. Including the wheels and windows. I meant to do a total cost for it but never got round to it.

    I got a LWB 115 almost identical to yours and want to convert it, that’s for posting.

    Did the converted interior rattle when you drove on rough roads?

    • @dhow5732
      @dhow5732  Год назад

      Hi. I didn't really drive on rough roads. It was more items stored that I heard rattle. Plates, pans etc.

    Hi, what did you use for the ceiling? Plywood? Also where did you get the wiring please?

    • @dhow5732
      @dhow5732  2 года назад +1

      Hi thanks for watching. I got the plywood roof from eBay. It comes pre cut. Most of the wiring I got from rayne automotive.

    What car is the bed from? Or did you make it yourself? Do you have some plans or layouts? I really need this for my Vito. :) Nice work.

      Hi the bed was manufactured by Hammond camperbeds. They designed and installed it. Thanks for watching.
