LFGSS Camper Van owners?

Stuart Collins as they allow me to be out of UK for entire policy

Cheers, will investigate

I started making 2 slide out trays for under my bed, 1 for my bikes and 1 for all my crap.
What better place to do this than on a camping...

Your fellow campers will love your circular saw noise and possible tripping of the electrics...

Love it!

Didn't piss anyone off yet or trip the power:)
Hope to be able to fit one more mtb on the tray, but its gonna be tight

Awesome! Are you painting it yourself?

Yes! Military paint, goes on quite nice

Does it go straight on top of the original paint? Interested to see the results!

Yes, just needs keying up, few evenings with the sander. Any bare metal bits treated with etch primer, get another coat on today. Then tonight prep the next bit

Coat two

Update; nearly done! Red door has completely gone now. Just a last coat here and there. Kids have done well, youngest has been in a sling a lot and is now done with me and painting… sorry!

Is that awning worth the money? They're big bucks

110%, ruddock race homes sell them cheaper; this one has a dent about 10p sized? On the top, you obviously can’t see and it’s tiny anyway, knocked £75 off.

Their own brand? What the cost?

Was going to do a tarp and poles.

Fiamma f45s, if your bolting to a roof rack, or a f80s (depending on van)

Fiamma do all their own brackets to
Fit every vehicle; do not be tempted by thule, got one, it was dog shit, sold it on

This is currently parked opposite my drum. Really nice.

Finished my slide-outs and I'm quite happy! Wish the bed was a tiny bit higher though, only dropping the dropper of the mtb is not enough anymore...

Very nice - great looking bike, van and location

Thanks!

I bought a couple of these suction cups to use with a tarp. They seem to be super strong but i didn't get around to use them yet.

Mot failed; exhaust rusted through the flexi and bushes, now sorted. No van for a few weeks sucks!

Bonnet complete,
Roof first coat
Ordered 245/75/16 tyres as I’m gifting these wheels / tyres to a friend - 2” diameter increase lifting the van an inch!
15mm wheel spacers going on too
Next;
Led light bar for the front of the roof rack
Build a shelf or two above kitchen area for parked up storage
Paint loads of the interior

Do you drive off road? I did one, was a rattly slow experience.
