Cargo Van as Camper - plan

Re: Cargo Van as Camper - plan

Those tip up windows are pretty sweet looking. Looks to me though that it is using an air strut rather than a crank mechanism. I would guess it's pretty similar to the slide access doors that you can get on a truck topper.

I think you're right, timd. I thought the hardware inside the window was a crank, but upon closer inspection of the raised window, that must be a locking mechanism. Wish I was in a position to buy right this minute. Looks like a great van. I think this idea is a keeper. Could have the whole van wide open - even in a thunderstorm.

terasec - where would you suggest for a better potty location?

i dont know,
just off top of my head,
under the bed?
in the closet?
maybe build a shower enclosure around it? can shower sitting on the potty or remove the potty to shower?
maybe build a bench seat around the potty? can be used as a seat, flip up the seat and have your potty?
just some random ideas
