Lots of good ideas already posted here.

I finally got around to putting a few days work into the van.  Been fishing and working to much and I’ve neglected my new pimp-mobile.

Here she lies, Ford econoline… Ballin like my SF Giants!

Pretty stealthy, except for the pervert m.o. and a few stickers for flare.

Oh yaaa, no windows.

First step, honor hippie artifacts from previous inhabitant.  The whole van was covered in good time.

Second step, add plywood floor, insulation and sheeting.  It’s pretty ghetto, but will be like the taj mahal along a steelhead river in the dead of winter.

Next, make sure to throw enough balls to tire out your construction partner and keep her happy.

Build your raised platform.  Sleep on top, storage underneath.

carpet if you wish.

Go fish. Don’t worry about campsites, motels, getting up at 2:30 to hit the hot river.

Cheers to winter!

Edit, I plan to add a few more fishing friendly modifications to her, such as rod racks on the inside, possibly a roof rack for a pram and a few other goodies as they come up.

Ford. Didn’t take the bailout. I have a friend who has purchased three different models this year.
