Nice job on the blog - not too busy and overloaded. A few additional pictures of the interior would be nice. Front to rear, rear to front, showing the entire interior at a glance to give a feel of that open space design.

The heating system is brilliant and many thanks for including the Ebespacher engineer's reasoning behind the choice of 5kw vs. 10kw.

Great blog and great truck. Hope you have many miles of fun travels

Thank you for all your kind comments, The blog is organic so I will add bits when I can.

Those of you who have been through this process will know that it isnt without its stress and frustrations. Its never finished but we are very proud of what we have acheived

We will be swanning around europe for a couple of years and then hopefully we will ship to the USA and from there , Who knows?

Thanks again

Neil

Great Job Neil! We have been contemplating adding radiant heat as an option. We have the Eberspacher for the engine already, but I think your pics have given me some great ideas and confidence to tackle.

I agree, more pics of the finished interior would be awesome!

Well done

Neil don't be shy, show them more pics of your interior! We were lucky enough to see the truck last weekend and the quality of the finish inside is stunning. It's a credit to you both that you have achieved such a design to a very high standard.

I will try to get some more shots. Photography isnt my best skill.

The ironic thing is that a large part of this trick started life local to you in Barrington Lakes. My brother lives there and he helped me souce a lot of kit in America

Well done, Neil and Pat. Enjoy the beast.

BTW: you never know what your skills are untill you decide to do something putting your heart in it.

Cheers.
