Hector is the don with engines! Can not wait to get my 2110 in, but I'm waiting on parts still :( Looking super cool though Luke, LOVE the interior 8)

That set up you have for the cooker and the bed is fantastic. I love how you can open the slider in the morning and literally fall out of bed!
Nice work mate.
 
Hi,

Wow, loving the cooker unit, very very nice, and so neat!, dont think i have seen anyone do that before, excellent use of space, bed look great too!

Really nice bus, loving this a lot (looks at my bus and feels sad...)

Cheers!

Touch of class there. ;)

Always loved a pull out rear kitchen. Eliminates all the smells in the van.

Interior layout is unorthodix but very practicle. That huge bed is going to be awesome for camping trips. Nice one.

Thanks for the comments guys!
I know what you mean about dash's John, Im happy with how its finished up.

Haven't up dated for a while, it seemed like nothing was getting done for a few weeks but I was just trying to finnish lots of little bits off, it's now starting to get there.
My main worry was damaging the engine running low, thanks to Matt letting me have a look at his set up on the laundry van I knocked up a sump and gearbox protection plate out of some 4mm thick steel, also trimmed the engine moustache bar down and welded some oil line connectors to it so they do not hang down and get damaged.

Next up my kitchen / cooker unit; It was important to have good cooker for the van, but at the same time I didn't want to have to hunch down to cook in the van so this was the solution, all made out of american oak with soft close hinges rated up to 60kg so should be easily up to the job, this holds a 3 hob smev cooker and Finnegan's bed sits on top.

To match the cooker unit I fitted a american oak side shelve for phone, cuppa T etc and a little table to bridge the gap between the seats which also doubles up to be part of the bed.

85-90mph most of the way back from Ninove I seem to remember! :lol:
 
Nice comments cheers guys!
I cant wait to get away in the bus with the whole family and test the interior out.
I agree Karlos, the motor is awesome, god knows what yours is gonna be like! I still need to get Hector to give the motor a tune up, I have given it fresh oil etc, might see if he is about at the weekend.

John it is very similar to yours, didn't realise your interior was like that have to have a butchers at yours next time I see ya. Think the sump guard is a type2d thing as I copied Matts Laundry van which they did.

Yes mate looking forward to getting that ticked of my job list!

Got the van in the workshop tonight after work to start going over it with the rotary polisher, got the rear, front and one side done, just the other side to do tomorrow.
