Hello,I am thinking of converting my van to a camper and have the chance of a caravan at a good price i.e. free! My plan is to use most of the interior of the caravan and fit it into the van.Good idea?Bad idea?Just at the early thinking/dreaming stage just now.Also I was thinking of getting a book called "Travelvans" by John Speed to help me out. Anybody read it? Would you recommend it?Thanks in advance.

George Telford is the one to advise you on this subject. He is a very clued up guy & only too pleased to help & advise. I'm sure he will be along soon so keep visiting UKCS and you will find loads of help.

Hi Doug ......... as you look around this site you'll find many who have taken on such a project ...... and have taken photos at every stage ... this is good for you to look back on and we love it (as most of us are nosey lol)

We brought a Renault Master 2 yrs ago ... o/h went into work (a job he had only had 6 months) to brag about our new van ... one of his workmates starting telling him what our van was like on the inside ... it turned out to be the guy that had converted it 6yrs previous (before he joined the company) ... he has since given us some of the photos that he took, and when he finds them,more to follow

I will then copy them and make up a book ... including anything we have done ... to pass on to the next owner

Looking forward to seeing yours
