Good engines in them, make sure the chassis is good and rust free, well worth getting grit blasted and painted.We are in the early stages of becoming van owners. Old Iveco which has been partly converted

Build light as this is the no one mistake made in many self builds, ttoung and grove walls and ceilings springs to mind, van sudenly weighs twice its weight.
Light ply and stretch cloth cover the walls and use spray glue and a roller to smooth out, lots of colours on ebay.
Sinthetic wood floor planking or lino best with a rug on it, easy cleaned and dried.

If you are thinking of doing a self build then my advice is to join a proper GOOD & ACTIVE self building forum group, there are a few of them around and the help, support and help they can give, can be totally invaluable.
Our free to join sister group Motorhome Builder is very sadly, nowhere near as active as many of us would like it to be, but never the less those members on there have an enormous amount of help and advice ready to be freely given.
