Hi folks i have just joined this site via looking at firefoxs u-tube postings. I have a Toyota midi coach that was converted into a motorhome but was then bought by us to re-fit to how we want it. It more or less ended up with me starting again from scratch and is being fitted out for fulltiming sometime next year for my wife and myself ,well that is the plan anyway,just thought i would say hello

Welcome lad...have seen you on Wildcamping. It's been some long project, your camper? Good luck with it though! Hee Hee yes i know i have had the bodyworked painted,to be honest it was in a bit of a mess so although i did tell them that their was no rush i am now itching to get it back now,which should be this week. I am now at the stage of getting the electrics in and although i kind of know what i am doing i air on the side of being overly cautious in particular when it comes to the 12 volt side of things so this is a first for me.I have 6 t105 Trojan batteries to fit in and 7 panels to fit to the roof all on angle and ready to go up.I decided to line the roof with them as i dont want to start adding them down the line.I only want to do things once if possible lol Its not easy to do a conversion when you work fulltime and i do sometimes wish work would make me redundant which would suit me fine

Any pictures? We like pictures on here I am waiting for the coaches return and then will put some up of the exterior,i do have some on motorhome365,but dont expect rs style quality its a bit of an ordeal to work out how to put them up to start with I have tons of finishing off things to do including the carpet for the ceiling being fixed to the roof properly as the heat this summer has made the carpet sag ha ha

Winddancer that is a lovely animal in your avatar we want to rescue a collie in the new year to hit the road with and give a dog a loving home,my wife is potty about dogs, and i have been looking at them a lot online recently.Seems to be a lot of collies in Wales advertised but we do not want to line someones pockets for one unless we donate to an animal charity we just want to rescue one and give it a happy home.

Have not got time for games any more firefox but congrats on the site it looks a good one and in a nice format,nice to see a dedication to self building and a bit of info on here. Likewise I don't get anytime for games at the moment what with the situation at work. Thanks for comments on the site It's slightly different to many other sites in that it's not autocratically run by me or anyone else. There is a committee of ten and a constitution. A majority decision is needed before anything major can be done. This may be a little slower, but it means no one or two people can throw their weight around and make bad decisions!
