Cracking job Screech .
Opening up the floors on a smiley is a bit like going to the dentist after 10 years absence :cry: ...........never sure what they're going to find :shock:

Have you got a plan of the van's layout you can post ?

I have various plans but they keep changing! I have to plan as if for a short wheel base cos the dogs have the first section (behind the front seats) all to themselves, so my space only begins after the side loading door!

It's small sacrifice cos they're so worth it. So soothing to know they're just behind me while I'm driving, sharing chips with em, putting my arm back & feeling their velvet muzzles in my hand while in a traffic queue & the security they provide when I'm parked up in the middle of nowhere or when dick heads approach the van & then get the fright of their lives as the pack spring up & bark with their fangs flashing :lol: I'll always have GSD's 8) 8) 8)

I'm asking for offers on this, see for sale section.

I have a Duetto 100 now, so this has to go. It's whether I kit her out as a camper first or sell as is....depends how much I get offered.

I have a tow bar that can go too & various bits to kit out (insulation, electric/wiring pack incl.leisure battery, all brand new).
