Hello Everyone I am new to the group and working towards full time VanDwelling/VanLife
I am based in Northern California in the Sacramento Valley and would love to meet other van dwellers and builders in the area if your around Sacramento
And hear about any events in Northern California I can go to
I make money off the internet and my laptop so electric power and WiFi signal is extremely important to survival
Here is my my 3rd van here 2001 Ford E150 Highroof Conversion I am building to live, travel and work out of.
Found it locally after a long long search and many wasted trips to look at beat up vans before find this one on Craigs List
$5k with receipts for new Ford crate motor installed by Ford dealer with 20k miles on it and a new transmission, tires, batteries, etc
Not a single door ding in the whole body and zero rust so it is a solid starting point for my project
Plans are for adding a bed, 12v Dometic Fridge, 12 television,4 camera security system,stereo, and 400watts Renogy Solar as well to run everything
Health issues and limited income because of it has prompted me to make this choice and I am happy with it reducing my monthly bills to almost nothing
Already less stress and really liking it
But lack of workplace or tools to aid in the conversion and installations has stalled progress even though my storage is full of amazon deliveries of tons of goodies to add to the van
The delays are frustrating but will I get through it
Progress is slow but for anyone wanting to follow or talk vans would love to hear from you
