Newbie: Buy an old Ford, install new poptop, then what?

[Nathandeuel]

Congrats, etlans! I'll have to post a pic of our van as an update. Since we bought her as a passenger: 1. we pulled out all the old seats 2. installed a couch-bed for our daughter 3. had colorado camper van pop the top and do insulation and wiring for shore power (insalled) house battery (installed) and solar (not yet) and just recently we 4. moved the couch-bed to the rear-left side so we could install a home-brew kitchen with a pump-sink, fridge, and stovetop. It's so epic! We use it almost every weekend

Great guys! Super nice. Gustavo is the older guy who owns/runs the place. Our couch/bed still working after two years of heavy use.

Warning: They did drill through the main wiring harness in our Chevy when they installed a captain's chair in the galley. Honest mistake but it cost me a lot of time and money to figure out what the problem was.

Ummm, drilling through the main wiring harness may be an “honest mistake” but a totally unacceptable one. First rule when drilling or screwing anywhere is to know what’s underneath or behind.
