Got the ceiling and the led lighting installed. Put the base for the upper cabinet in, mounting the roof top A/C tomorrow. Then starting on the base cabinets, so I can install the stove, sink fridge etc. Taking some time, but my work is a damm site cheaper that buying one already built. http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/view/24388722Just click on the slide show.

 Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you’re in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.

Nice work as usual Bill.  Please share your progress. I was looking at a long and tall 2500 Dodge Sprinter today with a living space in the front half and open storage in the back.... but unclear if it had 8 feet for a Valkyrie back there.

This one is a little cramped with the bikes in it, but room for 2 interstates side by side, and my sons sport bike in the rear. Going to install folding bunk beds on the left rear side, and a folding dining set on the right that makes into a bed. Both sets fold up against the wall and only take 7 to 8 inches of space when stored. I have wheel chocks that unclip from the floor and 12 recessed tie down brackets that are flush in the floor when not in use. Takes a few min to unfold every thing, but should work well for camping, cheaper that motels.

Don't think it is a problem on this one, 7 ft ceiling, rear door is 6' 4 inches high in the center. As long as I don't stand on the pegs.

Bill that is a great way to get just exactly what you want in a toy hauler. I know a fellow down here who did something similar. It's looking good. Jeff

Yep, led panels, 42 leds in each. They do a nice job, lights every thing up but not harsh. Bought them off of Aliexpress, china site like ebay. $40 for 10 of them including shipping.
