    Good luck! I recently bought a 2021 chevy express 2500 and I'm doing the exact same thing. About 40 years ago lol, I converted a Ford Econoline that I bought in Vermont. And now, I'm back at it again, wanting to hit the road - but first - I need to continue my work on it. I've been posting videos on my UA-cam channel as well and it's a slow process, but I'll get there! Take care!

      Enjoy the process! I’ll be keeping an eye on your build maybe we will have so ideas to share for eachother, I just picked up the lumber to start framing the bed frame and what not so the next video should be going up this weekend!

      @@NE_Overlanding I have a special finance offer from Home Depot that expires at the end of this month lol - guess I better go get my butt there & get lumber too. I just laid out my rubber cargo mat today to try and make a template for the floor. I'm going to use 1/2" rigid foam topped with plywood. But the lumber purchase is also going to include cedar planks for the ceiling, thicker rigid foam for the walls and furring strips for something to fasten to.

      @@NE_Overlanding thanks - same with your build. Everything is about sprinters, transit connects, etc. Hard to find videos on the GMC Savana or Chevy Express builds.

      @@ADKOverlandNY yeah I went for the gm van due to how easy they are to find parts for/repair if something were to happen on a long road trip in the middle of nowhere

    Hey man, I have an '08 with a crappy bed build (some grandpa made) can't wait to gut it & build MY own interior. Gonna follow along with you & see how you build 👍 Do you follow any Vanlife guys?
    I suggest three channels
    VanlifePLUS
    VANCITY VANLIFE
    Foresty Forest
    All these guys built their vans & I think Foresty Forest did his in the Home Depot parking lot as he bunked in it in a cott 😄

      It’s going to be a really fun build, I do not follow them but I’ll have to check them out for some ideas for sure! I appreciate the support!
