Let's see your camper interiors, factory, home-made, split, bay, vanagon. Whatever you got, let's show them off.

Here's mine. It's ugly purple/grey/fleckstone but has worked for me for all these years. This is close to how it looks now and close to how I got it 14 years ago. I added the the table and Westy stool, and now have black rubber flooring.

Things are about to change though, I've been wanting a full width bed for quite a while and picked up a blue plaid one from a 74 Westy yesterday.

The front seats were dyed brown and tore up. I found some close matching purple material and my mom sewed me some new seat covers. they are about 10 years old and ave held up great.

I saw the build on that one but never saw pics of the back seat in its entirety how does the back stay vertical when not in camper mode??

It has a normal wooden back which is held in by a couple of screws which I just take out to remove the back rest for bed mode, I am in the process of having it hinged so I can fold it down to make life easier

not my van, it's my brother's but I had some involvement in the build of it.
center piece is the shortend in 1/2 RV propane oven/stove.
it's nice to make lasagna or cinnamon rolls while camping..

to right is the RV propane furnace with inverter & small format microwave above.

*the metal cookie sheet above the stove clips on, but the aluminum screen isn't bothered by cooking pots/pans as he'd initially thought.
