Ford Econoline E350 EB Layout Ideas

[4Runner's High]

Hi all, lurker here. I recently bought a 2003 E350 7.3 with 180K for $4600. Paid a shop to repair the body rust, and paint it 2 tone with raptor liner. I'm going to be building my first camper. I have nearly 0 experience with woodworking, some experience with DC systems.

My requirements are:
- It will be staying low roof for now
- 400+AH
- 20+ Gal water
- Sink and probably camp stove that I only pull out when cooking. Or maybe induction - undecided.
- Hot water heater, with possible shower pan in entryway
- Fixed bed, at least a full size
- Large table for remote work, I will be using a 15" laptop and would like to be able to accommodate a 15" portable monitor and a mouse.
- I'm thinking the table should be shared between the 2 front seats, as it's probably going to be impossible to incorporate a dinette without compromising on the bed.

Anyways, I'd like to get some ideas for layouts. Please share your EB interior shots!

Shower pan in the entry way (meaning side door?) of a stock roof van? Are you over 42" tall? This won't work if you are. Please explain.

There are a million floor plans for you to consider. Look in the Sportsmobile archives online, Google images or whatever. Look at all the modern van converters floor plans. Most can be adapted to an older Ford body.

My advice? Don't go very far down this path without putting a high top on the van. Man can only live in a cave for so long.

Consider Fiberine or Tuffport. If you don't do this early on you'll have to basically rebuild your interior later.
