build thread for my van!!

had a big money day with the van, the insurance was due, paid that, £350, not too bad i suppose, then i went to see Jon at Calypso conversions to sort some more details and pay him some more money and organise a date to drop it in.

so another £500 is gone and it's booked in on the 12th of march. my wallet has never been so empty!! :shock:

but i have to think of a name for the van as Jon posts pics on his website after they are finished and he likes to have a name for each project . . . so, any ideas?

:)
 
Nice van Jonny.
I have it's smaller, slightly lower rent brother.

Big enough to take my trials bike, mountain bike, kip in the back (though not all at the same time :LOL: ). Love it to bits, but would swap both it and a bollock for a T5. :shock:
 
.

You and my mate seem to be modding T5's at the same time :D
He's doing all the mods himself, i'm currently giving him a few pointers with the paint.
Personally i like this sort of van i reckon you could bolt a bike carrier on the back :LOL: :LOL:

my T5

Nice looking van Johnnyboy. Here's mine after today's ride on Woodbury Common. Full Torbay Conversions camper conversion on a 5.1.
Great "lifestyle vehicles" aren't they?

You certainly would, cause you would have to be high as a kite to build it, let alone drive it!

Beetles have been turned into just about everything over the years.

I don't understand the thing about micro campers.

Like the ones on the back of a wee pick-up, or the wee delivery vans done out as campers.

The bay windows were compact enough. My favourite camper for actually using as such was actually a Type 25. But I keep that a secret.

I cannot imagine this one being as spacious...
