    I feel like that last sentence wraps it up with a neat little bow - "I'm happier, to be honest." Love the van, too! I have an 89 GMC 2500 that has been an excellent camper van. I plan to add a kitchenette and a few other things soon.

    Hi from Western NC!
    I recently won your vans "twin sis" at an online auction.
    I am super excited to find one of these great vans. As you probably know the conversion company is in Canada. Hard to find one in decent shape with low miles & that hasn't been driven to death. Nice catch girl! Maybe our paths will cross someday.

    I recently picked up a 1987 Dodge B250 Leisureway van, its a very similar layout as yours, Brittany. I immediately painted the interior to brighten it up, and am going to work on it over the winter to prepare for spring travels. There are several ideas from this van that I will consult with my volunteer interior decorator, haha. I'm sure she would approve!!!!

  • @LoboLux

    With these older vehicles I don't hear many people talking about the mechanics. Would love to know the gotchas to look out for when buying an old van in the $3-$6000 range. Any insights welcome!

    Beautiful home! Just an idea. Put a tin box under your bed around the furnace vent and move the warm air toward the center of the van. So that would be a 3-sided box. Top, and 2 sides!

    This is the first one me and my girlfriend watched that we can relate to. I don't hate people, I just hate being around them.
    The bed idea is super super sick and the ventilation for the heat is great too. I really like how you have a cozy little bedroom because honestly that's where we would pretty much always be anyway if we're in the van.
    Another awesome thing is the price is realistic, it's not a fake van life video with a 65,000 dollar Mercedes van that got 10-30k in renovations. I dunno this was super cool to watch and I got some great ideas, thank you from both of us.

    I LOVE IT! I recently purchased a 1997 Dodge Versatile 190 and I am in love. It had a lot of water damage and it has taken me over 10 months. I started with the chasis first and now it is great mechanically. The camper part has been a challenge and I can't find who can work on it so little by little. The only downfall is that my model did not come with a generator spot so I am hoping I can fit a small one in the compartment and hook it to the propane. Lots of work.
