Hi there, welcome to the iveco forums. There are a few people who have converted their vans to campers on here, including myself. What are your plans for the vehicle? Finding panels might prove quite difficult i am afraid, good luck though Edited by trance, Sep 5 2016, 07:04 PM.

Its a hard question to answer in a forum reply! So many questions for so many different things you need to do. You can do it simple (ish) or go for it, for most people its budget that dictates what hapens! I can certainly answer any specific questions you have, but you will find alot on the Internet or better still join the SBMCC, a self builders website with a wealth of info.... Good luck..... |

Hi try diy motorhomes,as a corrosive engineer in the past you are wasting your time with rust preventors,cut the bad bits out and mig/gas weld in new steel and prime with 2 pack epoxy ,good luck. |
