We designed and converted our 2010 Ford Transit Connect cargo van into a camper that sleeps two people. It's one of the smallest cargo vans on the market and typically converted by solo travelers but after some clever engineering we were able to fit a full size bed within the cargo space. This video is a time lapse of our conversion process! We purchased the van in February 2019 and began converting it in Chicago in April. We moved out of Chicago in September and finished the remainder of the build in Pittsburgh. It took us about 6 weeks until mid-October.

Leave a comment, especially if you have any questions about our build! We relied heavily on other RU-vid videos to approach our build confidently and we hope to give back to the community of potential van-dwellers by sharing our experience.
