We began with a basic empty van and set out to create a comfortable living space. Over two months, we carefully planned and built every detail. From installing systems to adding storage, this van renovation focused on practicality and comfort. Now it’s ready for the road and full time van life adventures.
From Empty to Epic: Camper Van Renovation in Just 2 Months
Camper Van Review
This Ford Econoline van went through a complete transformation – from an empty cargo shell to a fully equipped home on wheels. In just two months, we designed and built a fully insulated, off-grid-ready camper van, packed with smart systems, real wood finishes, and thoughtful details throughout. Perfect for road stories and long trips.
Smart Layout for a Perfect Van Renovation
This van interior balances functionality and comfort. It features a comfortable toilet and cozy sleeping area. The cozy bed lifts electrically to reveal ample storage underneath. Real maple wood cabinets and drawers offer plenty of organized space, while the transformer table creates a flexible work zone.
The design focuses on function and comfort. More about project here.
Exterior Upgrades
For full-time living, we added a black tank with sensors and a gray water tank with an electric valve. The van includes a rooftop deck and skylight for fresh air and views. Entry steps feature Santorini-style tile, and a towing hinge plus back camera enhance safety and versatility.
These upgrades personalize and improve daily life on the road.
Essential Systems for Your Home on Wheels
Our electrical system includes six 200W solar panels, two 300Ah batteries, and a 4000W inverter powering 10 outlets. A Starlink connection keeps you online. The propane system runs the water heater and stove, while a diesel air heater keeps the interior warm. We installed a 12V water pump and full water filtration for comfort and reliability.
The entire interior is insulated to keep temperatures steady.
