    Have a look at the layout of a Fiat Ducato ELDDIS cv40. There is a third bed that uses the drivers captains chair and the seats and table behind. May give you some ideas.

    Good luck, love the project idea! Would love to know about the van (mileage, price etc.) and your backgrounds. Contemplating something similar myself. Can't wait to follow along 👍

    • @Rags2Pitches
      @Rags2Pitches  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks Mike! The van has 85000 miles …. We are saving the price until the big reveal at the end 😂 We don’t have much prior experience…. Just general house DIY. Warren has a background in telecoms and has done electrical qualifications and basically can turn his hand to pretty much anything 🤘

    Now I know you have had experience in sign removal Warren, so let Shell do it🤣🤣
    First video looks great, looking forward to following your journey. Just a suggestion for the 3rd berth...... do you have a trailer 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    • @Rags2Pitches
      @Rags2Pitches  4 місяці тому

      The signs are off! So now you need to spot us driving around in a plain white van 😂😂

    Be very careful when buying an ex-plasterer's van the spilt lime ( used in rendering ) , is quite like to rust / carode right through the floor of the van .

    • @Rags2Pitches
      @Rags2Pitches  4 місяці тому

      Thank you for the info! We did not about that. We are currently in the process of stripping everything back and so far the floor looks good. We will be giving it a deep clean and then treating the small rust patches…. But so far so good 😊
