looking for help in central Florida

Hello,
I'm in central FL and am looking for a company, group or individual who can help me convert a 28 foot commercial Ford van E450 in to a home. Top to bottom, wood floors to solar panels and everything in-between.

I'm looking for help, advice, the voice of reason or a sounding board.


Thanks,
Mith1272

I can't help you with the work, but that is a very nice-looking starting point for an RV conversion.

It sure is a nice looking rig. Like Musigenisis said, it is a great start to being an RV!

Great find! That will certainly save you some conversion work.

Let us know what your plans are, floor plan, etc.

I'm in central FL. I'm no good at woodworking or any of that but I can give you a had if you need help.
If you're looking to leave the bus somewhere and cut them a check I'd be real careful. LOTS of folks getting ripped off on lackluster conversions for sixty grand out there. This is best treated as a run what you brung, roll your own kinda thing.
What part of central FL you in?
