    Here is a much anticipated video of our minivan camper conversion project we've been working on! We've converted a minivan into a stealthy camper van, complete with running water and electricity! We wanted this campervan to be spacious and comfortable, while still having the stealthiness that a minivan has. We are so excited with how this project turned out. In this video we give you a full, in depth tour of our build, as well as the electrical side of things. We have turned an ordinary mini van into a stealthy, comfortable, livable travel van. We hope you enjoy and get some inspiration.

    With everyone moving off grid or into vehicles, learning self sufficiency/agriculture and community commerce pretty soon we're gonna have a modern medieval society and I'm so down for that

    I see a lot of comments saying that there are lots of minivan conversions, but as someone who is doing a lot of research regarding vans I can agree that I haven't really been able to find other minivans where the conversion starts by ripping everything out to the frames, often people keep all of that in. I for one would love, LOVE more information/videos regarding how gutting the minivan went, what you needed for that, and if you sold parts or just or just trashed them. This is beautiful!!

      Dualex, how are you..i bought your ebook. I have a 1997 ford e250 high top fiberglass van. It is ambulette with a lift chair, i bought it some time ago..in the headliner i could see metal frame. I think maybe the whole van is metal frame but is in between the top and the bottom or underneath fiberglass layers...
      Was thinking about putting refletix then glue a wood frame then insulate and either put luan plywood or cedar planks. I see not way to screw into fiberglass...what you think

    I watch way too many camper videos on TH-cam, and out of all the camper designs, you have the most practical, and elegant design on here! I like how you can still use your van for hauling heavy items if need be, for me I'd like to move some contractor things while I'm not out and about camping and this is perfect. You also don't have the risk of many insecure objects flailing throughout the van if an accident/heavy braking were to occur. Thanks for sharing and stay safe guys.

    So beautiful, great job one of the best I've seen. The mechanicals are well done too. I like your idea of blocking off the side window, for one person the bed could be much narrower and the side with the blocked window could be expanded out to create a huge amount of storage.

    8:09 see the positive connection on the battery. it has nothing over top if it protecting it from grounding out on the hood. It's well past the stock height of the top post terminal. Clearly it's worked this long. But it's a danger non the less. If you get into an accident it could start a fire quickly. I see the fuse box you mounted. That helps but you should address it by buying a battery junction block, and then only run one connection on the battery. Be safe
