Ripped out the sub-par wrinkled coin flooring and patched the plywood floor where the tracks used to live.

Add some short pieces of perpendicular track and marked out the openings for the boxes.

Back on interior panels, got all the roof panels upholstered and installed. 1/8” birch wrapped in 1/8” closed cell foam topped with some Sunbrella fabric.

Started wrapping all sheet metal that will be exposed in charcoal tweed. Wall panels will receive the same material.

This is looking great! Wish I would have read through this more closely before starting my walls. I went with 6mm baltic birch and now realize that the 1/8" would have been much easier to work with. I'll hopefully be moving onto fabric in the next few weeks! What glue did you use for the fabric to metal?

Thanks. 3M spray 90 for the fabric direct to metal just out of convenience. Dep Landau through an HVLP spray gun for all the panels.

That was my plan for mine, so I am glad that I'm on the right track!

Full disclosure, I am not an expert! This is my first van build and I’m just imitating the things I see online, there may be a better way.

Interior panels are all wrapped and mostly complete, need to fine tune a few of the seams between panels and get more mounting hardware but the hard part is done! Next up, boxing in the electrical components around the passenger wheel well. Click image for larger version

The Gnarhauler: Another white cargo van.

I also picked up a new van accessory. 2021 KTM 300 XCW TPI. Runs like a sewing machine compared to the 2012 250 it replaced.

That looks great man!

What did you end up doing to cover the transition from the roof to the wall?
