Hi, I'm Nick. I'm from the Boston area. I've been watching the Youtube channel for months and dropping in here now and again, just lurking. Today I'm going to pick up my cargo van and am about to get to building. 

Anyway, hello everyone. Nice to meet you.

I just posted some pics. I've not been very good at recording my progress, but since you asked...

Hi Nick, welcome to the forums. Where can I find those pics (of the new van???) ...well, guess I'll go look around to see if you posted them in another thread here somewhere.

The Conversions and Modifications sub-forum seemed like the place to put them, so here:

Welcome, Nick! I'm hanging out north of the Woo for another month or so.

Headed into the best time of year to be here. 

If you don't mind my asking, are you a full-timer? If so, maybe you could tell me some things. I've heard that it's very hard to do around these parts compared with out West. 

I don't have plans to go full time but I'm very curious about it.

Welcome to the forum Nick
And congratulations on you new van. Hope to see pictures of the build as it progresses

I was fulltiming until I moved in with my mum so she could stay in her home. I'm hoping to be back out on the road any minute.

I generally spend the summers in New England and the winters south and west. I have friends and family whose yard I can park throughout the summer. I'm not into *stealth* camping. I have stayed at a couple of campgrounds. They're pretty pricey in these parts

Hi Nick
I'm Mike presently in S&B in Central Mass working on a 1994 Chevy Suburban Conversion! Best of luck! All us New England folks should do a meetup sometime!

Hey, two cars ago I had a 96 Suburban. That thing would not die. It rattled along to 300,000 miles before I sold it. Indestructible and powerful. There are things I miss about it.

We definitely should. I would love to meet everyone.
