I just recently started looking about 2 months ago. My car was totaled while sitting in a parking lot and the insurance...

    flat bed e350 to camper van

    The truck is a mid 90s model e350. Do spartan or rockport retailers still work on these trucks? I could't find any pricing information or places that do the conversion.
