Record Deck in a camper van project

Looking superb so far, you've got another 3 weeks 'til Run To The Sun to get the TT working

 

Uncle - looks absolutely amazing! I've seen a few camper vans recently and with a custom interior makes quite a good proposition. If it is not a rude question how much did the interior cost you and what did you have done?

Thanks

This is wot ya need

 

I hope so, gonna sit it on a sheet of bubble wrap, to give it a wee bit of cushioning. The dansette was the easy option - it happened to come with valves (also easy to get out, rather than leave it in permanently).

Thought it'd save a bit of money too, but if I have to get a pure sine wave invertor, going the pure 12v route might have been better after all. Anyways, I'll get it right eventually . As it stands, I'll have no probs so long as I go to a site with 240v. She's got a mains inlet as well.

 

Er, not too cheap to be honest - so far its cost £2,500, plus the £3,500 for the van itself, looking nice mind, but if I were to do it again I'd pay out the money and get an old Westy, Devon or Viking conversion in minty nick and paid the £6k to £7k asking price for it - I suspect they'd hold their value better, but on the other hand you'ld have to live with seventies stylee dark wood veneer Of course if you are a bit of a DIY sort of bloke, you could do it mucho cheaper.

The interior was a shell when started and the bunks in the roof had to be completely refurbed - so all new furniture, upholstery, curtains, floor, fridge, leccy and lights, zig unit, leisure battery, bed ... it goes on and on and now I've got to get the roof canvas sorted (another £600 or so).
