Sparky had the full camper package, but I removed the sink and ice box for more room. After being married for 20 years, the single bed is tight for two people. I have thought about making some changes. Here's one of my plans.
1. Remove the bed, side storage and overhead and replace with a full width bed
2. Use the hardware from the bed and the wood to make a pattern and make it full width, but it would still fold up to make a bench seat
3. Use the overhead storage as a pattern to make one that goes all the way across
4. Under the bench seat install some drawers on sliders instead of the doors and some 6x9 speakers in the wooden bed frame
5. I like the idea of a 3-way fridge because ice is a hassle. A good one is expensive - $400+
6. The small seat behind the driver is a handy storage

I have some photos at work of a panel van that was EBAY earlier this year that has some good ideas. I'll post them tonight on Sparky's website.

Hi Denis.

The Hoochiemama is A Westy with a full camper package, The only
thing I use is the bed in it.  I use the sink and ice box for
storage...

That is all I've ever used in my camper. I turned the sink and
ice box into 
storage.

Since my bus is no longer a worktruck I am thinking about an
interior. Fred
(the Real), Steve and Sharon, Sammie, all you guys have camper
interiors,
but how much of it do you really use? My bus was a camper, but
when I got it
the interior was really trashed. There was an "icebox" and a sink
with a
metal water tank and a pump kinda thingy. I think all the rest of
it was
storage. Mark's vanagon has a whole kitchen, but I don't think I
have the 
room to have a stove, no matter how small.



The guy, Ira, has a lowered green panel and he simply has a big
bed. So is 
that all I'll really use, the bed and some storage?
