Hello every one,
 First thanks for being here and posting over loads of information I have spent many hours as a guest and watched every youtube video and feel like I know a few of you thanks again for all your help it has been during my search 

 The lurking and searching is over I found the van that fits my wants extended length high top 1994 Ford Honorbuilt 
I think that it is a rare model nothing on google even close has a van body fiberglass top it looks like a Fiesta/Falcon with two windows over the cab has a bathroom had captains chairs that I removed for my future bed and kitchen work in progress. Me I'm from Salt Lake City Utah been a Manufactured Home Community Manager for the last fourteen years crashed on my Mt.bike busted up my body and lost my job perfect timing now I'm ready for full time vanlife I have a dog named Stormy and she is just as excited as I am we have been sleeping in the van hanging out thinking of floor plans and such
I will be at Jamie's van build party working on it and helping where I can 
RTR in January and then .......
see ya down the road sometime I'm sure

Luck is all I have some good some not so good
Waiting for Amazon orders and some installing then Jamie's van build party will be my new beginning
 
Hi there, Justlucky - what a great van. Tiny photo though .... I hope you'll post a larger one. Maybe also some nice photos from the van build gathering. Before and after photos of the interior? Well, whatever happens. I don't have a van yet but will probably get a Ford.
 
Welcome to the forum Justlucky
Sounds like your well on your way building your van. Good luck and hope to se pictures, hope to cya at RTR
 
Thanks Danny,
I am going to order solar , Max Air and a few other things tomorrow getting it done a little bit at a time.
Definitely will be at the RTR and will get pictures up on another thread when I get some thing worth posting
As a side note I did get a pre purchase inspection and they missed several things the biggie is no catalytic converter,wrong serpentine belt and more
I did get the status of most of it but they are human beings and assumed this and that with out really looking at it like I paid them to do it was a shocker after the purchase I'm happy with it but issues that were unexpected
 
I hope it’s not going to be a big setback for you as it seems when we put ourselves on a schedule to get things done something always happens.

Hi justlucky, glad you’re getting to fashion a life you want now. Sorry getting mangled played a part in it. I do most things the hard way, too {ha!}. Something else we have in common, I can’t for the life of me figure out how to post a photo. I think it’s part of the ‘newby thing’. ... Wait, I think I just found how to do it. Just before you ‘post’ or ‘review’ what you’ve written, there’s a green bar beneath with “attachments” written in it. Try that {smile}
