This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIY Van to RV Conversion Guide - How I Converted My Passenger Van into A Campervan Before we start, let me first put your mind at ease by assuring you that a Van to RV conversion is not expensive, I did it, and I am here to share the whole process so you can do it too. If you are like me then you know and agree that most commercially available conversion vans are ugly and expensive. I wanted the luxury and comforts of an RV but in a vehicle that I can easily drive around town. If you are on a limited budget and want to start your new life as a full-time nomad like me, then this is the book for you. Any type of van can be easily and inexpensively converted into a roadworthy and comfortable camper. You can complete the conversion on your own in the comfort of your own backyard with few tools and some basic build knowledge. It's easy to build the home of your dreams when that home is on wheels! That could be you. Your DIY campervan could take you there. I have just finished my second van to RV camper renovation conversion. The first time, I thought I knew what I was doing but I really didn't. I didn't have the help of any sort of guidebook (like you will) when I took on my first project. I thought, "What could go wrong?" Well, I found out what could go wrong! For starters, my girlfriend wasn't the most comfortable settling into the van. Space wasn't laid out well and we were constantly tripping over each other. Not to mention that the first go-around, I didn't create any sort of cabinetry but decided to use milk crates to hold all our stuff. In this second try, I took my time documenting the steps and making better choices. I went a little fancier in the finishes and made the van much more livable for what I hope will be a long-term investment. In my book, I will tell you just how to turn your van into the camper of your dreams. I have also included tons of information for first-time van campers for boondocking, packing lists, and do's and don'ts for your amazing road trip. In this book, I will direct you on how to transform a van into a camper from scratch. There are many factors to consider when it comes to developing a DIY campervan. Each aspect of your living must be put in place nicely to ensure that you enjoy your life on the road. Since you will be spending most of your time in an RV, you are looking for space while at the same time, you want to include as many luxury features as possible. These aspects should be balanced delicately. You will learn: The history of conversion vans What types of vans you can use for your conversion and what each might benefit you How to make sure your van remains roadworthy and street legal What insurance you might consider How to set a budget (including a look at my conversion budget) What you should do BEFORE you start pulling the old carpeting out How to create a layout that will work best for you What tools and materials you'll need for your conversion Tons of advice for making your life in a van that much easier And, of course, comprehensive step-by-step instructional procedures on how to make your van a wonderful home on wheels. Be sure to review the table of contents before you click "Add to Cart" so you can know exactly what you're getting for your money. I sincerely hope this book helps you achieve your dreams of being a full-time nomad in your own self-made campervan. If I had this book from the start, I would have had a much easier experience!
