Lots of work guys looks great so far, a little set back with the crack in roof maybe rhino coat the entire roof like in a pick up truck bed it might help to prevent any future problems with water infiltration. At the end it will all work out! 👍🏻

Your project is coming along just fine. That said and considering the weather you are doing it in I'd say your progress is fantastic. Look at the good side on the crack. Better to discover it in your driveway than during a thunderstorm while camped out at Sturgis or some other remote spot. I think in the end your going to come out just fine. Thanks for Sharing!

Y'all have done a lot of work and it will be nice when it's done. I grew up in the snow and I don't miss it any. If you ever want to get out of Nebraska you have a friend in Texas that can help you. Some of our family from Loomis, Elm Creek and Kearney are coming down this weekend for a visit. We are all meeting in South Texas. It's going to be a great time and I'll be riding my Harley down which I get to ride almost every day. It's going to be great weather. Good video and hope you get everything worked out on the van.

That sharp turn you have for the wiring, if you haven't thought of it, buy some rubber gas line at Napa slice it down the middle length wise heat it up and bend it around the corner. Once it's cold put in the wire ,it should do the job

@Life On The Blacktopw Like @H2O Town says, make sure the insurance writer you have on the policy for your van is capable of writing a policy to cover all the upgrades you do to the van! Take lots and lots of pictures along the way and submit them to your agent so they have a comprehensive record of what you have done/are doing! If they have the pictures and you have the pictures then you both can be on the same page when understanding your insurance needs and what they are willing and capable of covering!!!! You definitely want to Cover Your Own Ass(CYOA)!!!
