    Got tired of racking my brains out on how to do the inside so I just started slapping things together. The bed will actually fold up into a seat. And since Minnesota changed the seatbelt laws recently...now I have to add seatbelts in the back also Mad It's slowly getting there...I'll have a small flatscreen somewhere in there and a friend of mine is going to do all the stereo stuff for me. I'll keep adding pics as I make progress...

    I made the corner cabinet and it was a pain in the a$$...the wall tapers vertically and also horizontally so it took alot of trimming here and there to get it to fit right.

    mo_1040 wish I knew you were trying to make a cut like that. I have a way to get that cut the first time. You need one of those compass's from your school days. First you put your wood as close to the side. Then put the point part against the wall of the van and the pencil part on the wood and follow up the contour of the side as the pencil draws on the wood. Work perfect every time. Hope this make sence???

    G-Man, I didn't think anyone else still used a compass. Though I was all alone in using that method... And yes it work perfect everytime...
