Re: 2000 4x4 Ford Van Build

Been lurking for a long time, but I just need to say WOW. Your build looks incredibly well done. You have also given me a few idea's for my own build. One being the use of Formica . May I ask where you sourced the bed/bench from?

Now back to lurking.

Re: 2000 4x4 Ford Van Build

Yes the van SOLD....thanks to everyone for all the positive comments throughout the build. It was time for a change of pace and on to a new project. So what's next well on to a sprinter. Maybe that still falls into the forum... The new project!




Bad Photo?

It will stay 2wd, unless there is someone comes up with an affordable 4wd system.

Spur,

Sent an email, but wanted to ask here also. Where did you get that seat frame?

Re: 2000 4x4 Ford Van Build

How did you get the slider door to clear the bushwacker fender flare?

Re: 2000 4x4 Ford Van Build

Looks like spurious hasn't been around for a bit, but i've got another question for when you do come back around... how was sleeping in the top bunk after you switched to the bubble top? Significantly less room than the pop tops obviously, but was it still doable? Or did that become just storage?
