Building a camper kit for my 65 Greenbrier

Post by vintagestan »

Using some old parts from an original camper kit, but mostly rebuilding it all out of walnut veneer plywood.. wanted an L shape seating instead of the cabinets going all the way across the width of the van. Ordered custom cushions today for all seating and fold down bed.. should be fun- we plan to take lots of trips in this!

Stan,

I am wanting to build a camper conversion for my GB similar to what you have built. Do you have a completed picture? Where did you get the hinges you used on the sofa back that fold forward into a bed?

Thanks!
Eddie

Thanks- I will look for some more recent pics. Unfortunately, I still have not finished it 100% because of my habit of starting so many new projects! But I hope to finish some details this Spring.
