VW T4 Caravelle

THE PROJECT

We were allowed to "electrify" this Caravelle with a 230 V system and shore power connection as well as to carpenter a high cupboard adapted to the bodywork with recessed flaps. In addition, we felted parts of the bodywork and created a clean finish to the existing panelling. The bed and the rest of the furniture were then finished as a DIY camper conversion.
