Nice work, done a similiar thing with our van 3 years ago. It's a single axle 17ft on road van thats 20 years old. Made it nice and cosy for us and the dog. Had some great trips away so far. Look forward to following your travels, stay safe. 👍
Hi 👋 I saw this looking gorgeous btw, tips and hints on what I can do with mine which is exactly the same van. So far I've done a lot of things like putting shelves into the right side wardrobe, and installing my toilet to roll in and out in the cupboard underneath, getting rid of the seating on the left near the fridge and creating a cat station shelf, underneath is storage for boxes and under that is the vans 'heart' -all the electrics etc. I didn't paint inside the cupboards but linened them with silver insulation ... ALL of them to keep heat and cold out. Now I don't get a big poof of hot/cold air when I open them. And I've replaced all the lights. For me, this is home for the next 10 yrs. Idk if you ever look back in here or not but I have 2 questions. First the stick down flooring. With some time and travel under your belt - Have they stayed in place with the movement of the van? And the paint ... did you prime to get it to stay stuck to the laminate walls ? And oil or water based paint? Thanks and cheers 😊 happy travels.
Great job, well done. No need to spend $100k on a new caravan. You should be proud of yourselves.
Thanks so much, Wal. Our thoughts exactly!
That’s amazing I would love do something similar with my partner

Thanks heaps for the comment, Colin! Yeah, it's a lot of fun reno'ing the older vans. One of our favourite projects we've done.
