Haha sounds interesting, I'm no boat builder though! I just fixed and refitted the damn things. Fiberglass is a whole different area, which I don't have tools or supplies for really. I respect the guys who can do it nicely, but I don't think my result would look great, and cost/time would be...
Pleased to meet you, let me know if you want any help with the build out/insulating, love to see what other's choose :-)
My only real worry is the type of vehicle and body type to choose for the refit.
The actual work, and the requirements of heating/drying are things I am pretty comfortable...

1 part and 2 part are totally different products.
1 part relies on moisture etc to cure and is not really suited to this activity(Great stuff is 1 part, and mostly useless).

Simplest solution: fresh air intake from somewhere, hepa filter on it before it enters the van. keep positive pressure with a low speed low power fan, and you have clean air leaking out anywhere, not contaminated air coming it. Low flow rates are Ok if it runs all the time I think. Larger...
Hi :-).
I'd like to see more people's vehicles in person to try to figure it out.
The problem for me with a cube or step van is parking, they are much harder to deal with here. Step vans look awesome! but parallel parking one on narrow residential streets would be miserable I suspect. If I...
Hi from Vancouver, I'm turning 26 in the near future, an ex-liveaboard coming from a small boat background hoping to become a VanDweller. I was reading the CheapRV site for a year or two before settling on living aboard a boat instead of a van the first time around.
