80 series interior camper conversion

This is the setup from my 80 series that I fitted last year. Only selling as doing a rear chop and box on the back. Now removed and ready to fit. Easy to fit - check the pics of it removed, you can see how it is constructed and how it will be straightforward to fit back in an 80. Storage...

This guy is in this forum here but this is an old thread. I wonder if he still has the plans.

How do I send an email to the poster?

That requires no plan , its simply floor space and height , the curve under the window on the sink side is the only vehicle specific cut .

I bet you could buy the whole thing in Ikea .

There we go took me 10 minutes to find those and all you need is a jigsaw .

I get the bunk in the back (I often sleep in the truck if I'm on my own) but anything like that with sinks and stuff I would want a roof conversion as well.

This is my “house” and I wish it would look like the one with a bench and a mini kitchen. I prefer that setup because you can make meals inside the truck specially when it raining outside.

All things possible Jole even on a budget .

These people are far from skint but i love the just do it attitude and the guy seems to have a very similar technical approach to things as me which is chuck it in scribble some lines on it take it back out and chop off the bits that don't fit . The vid reminds me of being a kid when a mates father said we can have an old tin shed as a den . I'm sure he never bargained for a 7 year old pushing a two seater leather chesterfield 3 miles uphill from the tip , and that was just one trip , there where many others

Thank you

I'd have lived in that shed , anything was better than going home . Sadly i was up on the roof fixing a leak when the kid who's father owned the shed threw me a brick which bounced off the eaves and landed on his head requiring a few stitches which killed the whole idea . Too dangerous his father said

I should have put him on the roof he was lighter anyway but i figured he would be safer on the ground . Had it been me i'd have hid until i stopped bleeding then washed in the river before going home , I wasn't allowed to hurt myself and i'd get a hiding if i did

You would need to look up the “Active Vacation” package for the series 80 in Japan. It came with some sort of sleeping arrangement, a sink that was plumbed to a water tank(?) and electrical power outlets. Pretty rare version outside of Japan. A guy over on ih8mud bought one that was imported and tore out all of the active vacation equipment.
