cargo van bulkhead removal

[justinotto]

Hi,

I'm new to this site but it looks like a fantastic source of info. I'm in the process of purchasing a Ford E250 cargo van. My plan is to slowly convert this rig to a motorcycle hauling sportsmobile. The first question I have though is related to the bulkhead wall found in many of the used cargo vans I've located. Is it a pain to remove? On the same note, how about those built-in shelves that are also sometimes attached to the side walls? Any info. or someone with previous experience would be greatly appreciate.

Thanks,

Justin

Mine had the bulkhead and shelves removed, BUT there were four heavy steel bars riveted into a ceiling rib and I had to drill the rivets out, one by one. Not a huge deal, but it took a bit of time.

Wear safety goggles if you do this. The splinters were flying.
