Conversion Story: ‘Gilbert began life as a builders' van (albeit one with air-con in the cab). We bought him after a long and careful hunt. The wooden units and floor were hand built by Van Furniture, R&R bed upholstered to match the pop-top, and buddy seats made by Rusty Lee. We sourced it all ourselves and had it professionally converted by a local company.
