    Our van build

    So we finally started making some progress on our van project, building a 2000 E350. Started out as a plain jane cargo van. The plan is a 20" Fiberine top, 4X4 conversion, light camper build (bed, counter, sink/stove, fridge, electrical system). So far I've done some fix-it stuff, added flip...

    Found the right thing in U.K., how do I get it in U.S.?

    I greatly underestimated my wife's shop-fu. I looked for two days with no results, tonight she managed to find a U.K. source for 320 bucks (American) delivered. Brett, thanks for the listing! But you're right, those Washington guys are way higher.

    Found the right thing in U.K., how do I get it in U.S.?

    This entered my mind, but I don't know anyone in the U.K. I thought about putting out a request here, but that's a big ask for a new guy to make.

    Found the right thing in U.K., how do I get it in U.S.?

    Hi folks! My wife found a great sink/burner combo in one of her watched sites, but it seems to be a U.K. only thing. https://www.justkampers.com/us/dometic-smev-mo8821l-1-burner-hob-sink.html This is what we're looking for, a Dometic SMEV 8821 sink/hob. Googling this I found only U.K. sites, and...

    Increasing fuel capacity

    Stupid question time... I am building a 2000 E350 4x4 van. The stock gas tank (mid-mount) has to be shortened to clear the transfer case, leaving about 30 gallons of capacity. With a V 10, that equals a pretty short range. The obvious answer is to hang some gas cans on the back, but I don't...

    1988 ('06) E350 Van Build

    Yep, the stars aligned for me when I found ours, got everything I was looking for (cargo with door windows, V10, 4:10 post full-floating dana 60, manual windows, tilt/cruise, and everything works) and I bought it below budget. I'm interested to see how your manual swap is going to turn out...

    1988 ('06) E350 Van Build

    Really glad to see this thread, this is very much like the build we are working on right now. I'm working on a 2000 E350, short body V 10. Your van looks really clean, but did you pull out the carpet and check the floor? Mine (cargo van, from Portland) had two small rust spots under the mat, and...

    Aphroducky, a VW Bus

    Nice baywindow. I have a soft spot for aircooled VWs, currently working on a '74 super beetle.

    Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF*

    New from Idaho. We have been kicking around in a 2018 F250, with a Honda pioneer for rougher trails. Just started building a 2000 E350 so we can do it all (well, all we want to) with one vehicle. The plan is a 20" Fiberine top and 4x4 conversion. So far all I have got done is getting the floor...
