The interior shellFloor, insulation, ceiling supports, headliner shelf4 stories

Headliner shelf

My first finished hands-on project: storage above the cab. The repaired mounting point still needs inspection before loading.

Floor

The van came with a finished floor. The materials and hidden layers are still to be identified.

Insulation

We had pre-cut Thinsulate and sound deadening installed before the interior finish.

Planning the ceiling supports

Ceiling supports and trim are waiting for a confirmed installation plan.

Climate controlEcoCool air conditioner, Espar heater2 stories

Air conditioning

We had an EcoCool rooftop air conditioner installed. The exact model still needs a nameplate check.

Heat

An Espar gasoline heater sits under the passenger seat, according to the build record. Commissioning checks remain open.

PowerSolar, EcoFlow setup, shore power3 stories

Solar

We had three roof panels installed; the receipt lists 195 W each.

EcoFlow setup

The purchased setup brings together about 8 kWh of battery storage and a 4,000 W inverter, with a separate 12 V DC fuse panel. Installation details still need checking.

Shore power

A connection for external AC power is reported installed. The inlet and protection equipment still need identifying.

Bed platform design

Two east-west bed-frame ideas, with room for a garage underneath. Still a design comparison, not a finished bed.
