    Elockers?

    I never thought elockers were good for snow driving, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe consider a true trac and simplify.

    Ford Transit Cab Chassis with Composite Camper

    Thanks for stopping by. Some excellent craft work on the Fredy Marine page. I have been playing with fiberglass/epoxy projects for a couple years now with the ultimate goal of building a camper (similar to the Transit design of yours and the OP's) with an infused floor and roof such as you have...

    Ford Transit Cab Chassis with Composite Camper

    Why?, Its just like you said, "its all about the accommodations out back, no?" The F series cabs are 2' longer than a Transit cab. So for the same overall length, call it 20', you get 2' more cabin length.

    Kitchen Kit/Chuck Box

    Thanks, The stove is a Century Ultima 4586 I found it at a Big5 sporting goods just before a fly in/rent a campervan trip to Hawaii. Its small enough to fit in a cooler I have so it has been on many fly-in trips over the past 5 years. The really sweet feature not seen on many camp stoves is the...

    I'M BATVAN! ...a 2006 E350 V10 DIY Ujoint Conversion

    I built new push block/crossbar covers with new separately switched LED's and recovered them. The front ones got new black handles. I chose to reuse the stock headliner. The area in the curve is tough to deal with and the stock headliner panels do it well. I did build and cover 4 panels that...

    I'M BATVAN! ...a 2006 E350 V10 DIY Ujoint Conversion

    In review I realized that I left out a lot of pics of the pop top interior finish. Lots of little details to make this look good. These two were the most difficult. The rear above the doors and the AC duct transition piece. I integrated the existing van dome light and AC vents, then added...

    Kitchen Kit/Chuck Box

    Replying to my own post here as I decided to build another one of these 5mm birch/fiberglass tape/epoxy chuck boxes. I did make some design changes, some for better, some for the worse. One major change was the lid/front 1/3rd is one piece. This makes it easier to get to the front controls on...

    2006 Ford E350 4x4, Sportsmobile top, 3-4 seater, 4 sleeper!

    Hi There, There is currently a Eberspacher hydronic (B5) heater in the coolant loop. Heating the coolant loop, if the ignition key is on allows heat from the front and rear HVAC units or hot water from the heat exchanger. Its not automated.... That said, for the asking price I would install a...

    Fuso FG 4x4 Custom Expedition Vehicle Build

    Have you had a chance to test the Elgena? Hot showers yet? ETA to hot? With so many choices for hot water, what were your reasons for going this route? I would think a coolant loop/exchanger built in (to the elgena) would really increase its functionality. Build looks great!

    First freeze of the season

    Agreed, we have had a couple 25 degree nights so far, no issues, its 60 during the day and only 25 for a couple hours in the morning. I don't want to winterize yet because I still want to use it. Put a cup with about an half inch to an inch of water in your center console and monitor it on cold...
