Hi folks!
So, as stated in the headline I'm going to build me a camper out of a Vw Crafter which is more or less a Mb Sprinter. Medium length so internal length is 325 cm long. I'm waiting to get it, all the papers are signed so I'm waiting for the dealer to get it fixed. They will change the cam belt/timing belt (not sure of the English word), multi belt, oil, all the filters and fix the ac.
The nice thing about it is that it's been used for paint delivery here in Sweden so it's already insulated, floor, walls and roof. Plus, and it's a BIG plus, it has a second diesel heater for the back. Not sure about auxiliary battery but that's not a big problem.
This will be a slow build just so you know.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm planning a bed, will use my airbed that's 135 cm wide for now, in the back with storage next to it on one side. The foot end of the bed will be foldable with a sofa under it. The other end, open the back doors, will be an open storage under the bed. A small kitchen, i have a 2 burner primus, along the side opposite the sliding door. Not sure how to solve table and so on yet. But my main thing is a more or less fixed bed so it's quick and easy to go to sleep.
I'll get the van in about two weeks and then the real planning starts. 😀
