My panel is just as empty, so I'm looking forward to seeing what other owners have done.

The photo of the buddy seat with the table top fitted inside, been looking at something similar to do in ours, thats a nice bit of kit, take it its made from scratch?
 
A chap posted on here a week or two ago and i pm him about something. He sent me a link ill try find it. I think if my memory serves me right he is a cabinet maker. I think this layout in my panel is what im going for.Jjust one small cupboard with facility to cook wash up has a fridge n a table in the seat

that interior is graham L`s who runs Midland Earlybay.....made from his own plans and its as nice in the flesh as it is in the pics
 
We dont often go away as a family , so ours is fairly minimal as most of our crap is put in the awning when away !

Looks like all things timber have done that interior
 
Its nice to see inside some other panel vans. Keep um coming !!!
Was wondering is it best to use camper van door cards on the panel van walls just up to half way up or get the walls fully boarded out top to bottom ?
If you do the latter i was just a bit worried about things being a bit overpowering ? Of course nothing to stop the boards being painted in a light colour or covered the same as the front door cards?
I notice most pannels are kept quite simple inside most don't have a full camper cook sink set up ?
 
Just looked at the website, some very talented folk out there, work with carpenters on sites all day but this is on the next level, says he'll be at stamford hall so will have a word then i think
 
well mate mine was empty like yours when i got it and like the bich ply of my westy style headliner , so used the same on walls and door cards , yeah maybe a bit much but as you say , it can be broken up with posters , stickers , paint wallpaper , etc etc !

Yep thats our bus and the interior was done by Adrian & Jo at All Things Timber in York, never professed to doing myself and wouldn't dream of doing that, can't speak highly enough of the work and the detail they do. Our input was how we wanted the sink/cooker/fridge cabinet arranged internally as thats the biggest cabinet you can fit if you have a full width bed and we came up with some ideas with Adrian on this so each bus is unique,
 
All things timber are booked up well into next year, ours is booked in but we will have to wait till August/September time for work to being on the inside.
