Car Fix DIY Videos

Here is the first video detailing my DIY Ford Transit Conversion.

I know it’s a break from my usual genre of bicycle touring videos, but traveling is difficult given the current state of the world. As soon as COVID is under control, I promise to get back out there. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy my lockdown project.

In this episode, I start my project by insulating and framing my van’s exterior walls with mineral wool, reflectix, and liquid foam. Once complete, I move on to the floor.

I began installing a floor in my 2019 Ford Transit by insulating it with polystyrene strips. Next, I mounted plywood rails to the raised metal ridges using self-taping screws and 3M 5200.

Next, using the floor mat that came with the van, I traced out the pattern on three sheets of 1/2″ plywood.

Lastly, I framed out the exterior walls. Again, 1/2″ plywood strips were the best option.

It was a lot of work, but the results were fantastic. My DIY Ford Transit Conversion was off to a great start.
