December 2010 - Are you top or am i tail...

Guess he's wandering where he's going to sleep!!

December 2010 - Sparky at work

The electrics are going now. The CBE PC200 mutts nuts of power distribution units is about to be connected... Not too sure about that scary 230V thingy though!

Notice the AGM deep cycle gel leisure battery... All 30Kg's of it, enough to power a small village let alone my camper for a weekend, I hope :-)

Now... could you get those lights lined up any straighter... holes drilled with ceiling panels removed and aligned by eye... my work is done...

December 2010 - It's alive!!

Yep... hours of pacing up and down the ConvertYourVan workshop floor and the finished furniture fitting is complete... Here's the new interior :-)

November 2010 - Fitting Autogliss curtain rails

Whilst these curtain rails are very compact and able to be bent to shape, one must take care not to create too much of a bend or the rail will distort. I've tried to keep the bends to a sensible bending point...

One last trim addition...

And some more pics of the rear lining...

Finally, the time has come.... The van is off to get the internal furniture fitted in Sheffield, so I'll post again when the van is back...

October 2010 - Van returns all carpeted

The finished lining job was pretty good and yet again looking so different now...

I purchased some spare lining felt to tackle some odd bits like covering the side step (needed replacing due to wear or covering)

Tidy job indeed...

The curtain rails can be fitted next.

October 2010 - Finishing forward panel holes

Time to finish off drilling the cable holes in the forward roof panel and clip back in place.

One last trim of the driver side ply panel, around the window, before the van goes off to Transformer Transporters in Derby for the internal carpet lining. I didn't trust glueing myself for eternity to the inside of the van, let alone let loose with a pair of scissors in there!

Not a bad job, if I must say...

October 2010 - LED light fittings

Time to drill the holes for the lights before the carpet lining goes in.

I purchased four Nova 9 Fri-Light LED 12v lights from Grassroutes Leisure. The usual two wires, positive and negative ground, simples...

Not sure about the Silver Sands bezel trim colour, so will be colouring those in a dark grey colour before fitting.

Nearly forgot to mention the LED strip lights that i picked up at Vanfest. Cool blue lights for that mood lighting...
