Blank canvas mate. Its part built but its rubbish and getting binned. I was a separate bed room up the back so no need to pull a bed out. Make a larger loo as mine is cramped, also go the height for a shower if i can fathom the heat exchange. Solar already on the roof. One is smashed but the good one is 290w so plenty for my needs. Im just chuffed to get a van i can stand up in big_smile

Not been under it yet but they are easy to weld up if needed. The body on coachsmith is either stainless or Fibreglass so just the floor to rot and if i dont need any welding ill get straight into the underseal. Bloody thing is restricted to 60mph though.

My Dispatch is a work van mate as i am gardening. Had an Expert in 1985 what i make a camper out of and it was having that what made me know they would be ideal works vans. Our first trip in the Expert to Germany we decided to take the dog (Rottie) Soon discovered the van was to small so bought a standard convoy to convert

That was ideal but since did a refit with a loo and sick of pulling beds out and making them so now i have space for a bedroom with full size bed always down. Loo with a bit more space and still plenty room for kitchen and seating area.

Re: My van is to small

Neighbors love me. Got my Dispatch for work in the street, wifes car, New bus and the black old one. Idea was to sell the black one and use the cash to convert the silver one. Bloody Corona came along so i cant sell the old to fund the new one. Think the new bus is getting called C-19 big_smile fingers crossed things will ease up in the next two weeks and i can start work on it. Bought all my 12v and 240v wiring. 12v TV, Blagged a large coolbox that sits on its side and acts as a fridge also

Anyone want a larger self build camper. Black convoy up there ^^ for 2500 ono. 2 berth and a flushing loo
