got a bit more done ,insulation finished apart from doors, T&G ceiling up, 2 coats of varnish , walls panelled and Mrs B 's nearly finished the discovery coat, cut the headlining down to use most space,will fit a shelf and door to that, and cut in and fitted the final window. my heartfelt...

Barrie- i'm going as fast as i can, i'm not young and sprightly like you ! as for the ball joints, i did one on the last van- real mare of a job ! had to cut the old wishbone off a bit at a time , i'll pay a mechanic if another needs doing !

bought a tatty 2000 Sprinter for £1300 and started on it yesterday. no rush, just plod on and hope to catch a bit of summer in it. so far i've made the frames for the 3 windows and rooflight, and fitted the 2 flanged windows. insulating today,not my fave job, but once that's done i can get the...

i've got a Webasto 3.5 kw which ,when it's running fine, heats the van to 25 degrees in about 25 mins .i've had to service it, not hard but a complete dismantle, and now the pump's gone- another £40-60. it uses 12v constantly of course ,as well as diesel however i also have a Morco convector...

put the glue on the battens,leaving a couple of bare areas,then use one of these HOT MELT GLUE GUN TRIGGER ELECTRIC ADHESIVE STICKS FOR HOBBY CRAFT MINI DIY | eBay squirt a couple of blobs on the bare bits, then, not hanging about , push the batten in place and hold it a few seconds till the...

well that would work, but i can't see why you have a problem attaching ply or battens, i do it all the time using a combination of Stixall, to glue stuff, and hot melt glue, to hold stuff in place while it's gluing. if you go for the screws through the roof ,which i don't have a problem with,i...

insulate, then screw the ply directly to the roof ribs using self- drilling screws, which do exactly what they say

the sevel vans , fiat,citroen, peugeot,have one advantage, their width could allow for a fixed transverse bed with large storage under if you want

i hope no-one is suggesting that you furnish the load space like a bedroom ,complete with made up bed and some shelves ! although it did once work for me.i had to mot the van at a HGV garage, the tester found it odd that the rear bedroom had no access to the front living area, but i...

not good enough, you can't see the type of van or the reg number

i send 6 pics -1 side view showing van type, 1 rear showing reg and interior,1 with side door open showing interior, 3 interior dear sir/madam as you can see from the pics i have converted this vehicle to a motor caravan. i would be grateful if you could change the V5 to reflect this change...

reading light bulbs are normally push in and turn type, or just pull out

if it's any help,you should find it too hot to hold your hand in the flow of air from the outlet. a small van should get too warm for comfort

lucky you !

you don't get your pics back normally the most important photo should show the back of the van,offside door open showing some of the interior, but the Reg No must be clear on the other door. add about 5 general interior shots and a short letter asking for a change. my theory is don't bore them !

i would say it's very safe . the flame is completely enclosed by the metal box ,which itself is covered by an outer layer of thin steel and aluminium, the front cover and rear baffle plate. exhaust gases are removed via a flue which goes through the roof. if so, make sure it's clear of leaves...

it's a convector heater that has a flame inside it ! not sure if you'd call that a fire though . anyway the flame,like other Carvers, heats up the metal box it's in and hot air rises. it also has a fan which blows air across the box and through ducting.it also has, i believe, 2 x 1kw 240v...

Propex are good and fairly easy to fit, these Carver Trumatic SB1800 LPG FIRE HEATER For Touring Caravan USED BUT GCOND | eBay are cheaper ,but harder to fit. i've got one similar in my van. and a Webasto, which is good but even dearer
