Put the fittings in the tank today:

Then we put in the new fridge. First task was to put on anti-stupidity zipties:

Then we cut the frame:

Bent the lines:

And in. The upper one is the fridge, the lower one the worlds most expensive drawer:

And put the tanks back in:

Couldn't fix the fridge?! You of all people should be able to figure it out!

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

I think I could have fixed it but I didn't feel like messing around with it. I need to get this thing operational, not fix stuff. Also I want the reliability of a new one.

Totally understand, I guess it could always be done later down the road too

Not a lot to show but a lot of work. Electrical and plumbing almost finished on the right side:

And hidden:

Looks great! It's amazing how long all the stuff you can't see takes!

Put in a new windshield. No more rear view mirror but a sunshade on top:

Also decided to do some climbing over the long weekend now so i need to get some stuff done. Will be a long night so i can start friday morning.

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

So we put in a night shift to finish some of the electrics and the counter top:

Of course the last screw my dad put in went directly in the already filled water tank. Well, we got it sorted out.

Then it was time to start it`s maiden voyage:

I`m absolutely pleased. Way better than i thought it`d ever be and it`s not even half finished...

 

[java]

Awesome! That first night is so rewarding!

 

[IIVIIoonshiner]

as an avid trad climber I have to say I love the climbing touches!!! great rig and fab work

remind me you call those shiny things bolts??? i think I've seen one or two in North Carolina.... :ylsmoke:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Yes, it was just awesome. In my Vanagon it always took me one or two nights until i slept well, in the Sprinter i slept really well the first night ever. :costumed-smiley-007

Put in a new stereo:

Wired in the indicator lights:

And made some dividers for the cabinets:

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Small update:

Battery gauge mounted:

Cabinets finished:

Also spent the next Weekend in it too. This time skiing:

 

[java]

Very nice! I like to boot drying rack. Im a little jealous. Wet boots suck!

Voltage only batt gauge?

 

[Steinbruchsoldat]

Yes, voltage only. I think that`s enought.

Didn`t post much lately, mostly because i`m enjoying the Sprinter all the time:

But i also got something done:

Cut the cabinet doors so they will open with the bed extended:

And mocked up the upper cabinets:
