I picked up some 20g sheet metal that will be skinned over the holes... Two sheets 4'x6'9" for $40...
Then I'll cut some of the pink styrofoam and stuff it on the inside for insulation...
There will be a couple of windows, but they will be cut in after I find some decent RV ones...

Sometimes i hate being young and working part time. As soon as i finish this schooling thing and get a job im gonna build some neat toys
Hey, we can dream right! haha
Looking good, as stated on the old camper bus we have (56 chevy v8 bus) the bunks are at the back, sofa behind the drivers seat, and the bathroom between sofa and the bunks. Weve never used it, but i think your ideas gonna work pretty well.

It was to dark to get pics of the other sheet installed last night...
We'll get the drivers side done today and start on the passenger side...
On of my neighbors gave me some pretty thick galv sheet... Think it's 12 or 14 gauge... I plan on using this to make the side door disappear... Another freebie...

Thanks... It would be moving faster if we didn't stop to jump in the pool every hour or so...

Gonna use the pink styrofoam to insulate where the windows were... Then the walls and ceiling will get carpet...
