Ford transit HVAC build

[Clubin]

Bare canvas.
Started with a 25 transit 148 high roof awd.
Ranger shelving with a bunch of other goodies.
Legend floor thresholds and roof.
I also spray foamed the interior.

That’s what I have is a transit with the high roof. I love it! So nice to stand up inside to get what I want/need. With the high roof I was able to build me a little pipe rack on the driver side above the top trays of the shelving out of pvc tubes to hold copper pipe in one, all my pvc and pex in one, and then strut and all thread in the other.

It looks nice Clubin!
It's obvious we are an older group, when we were young we got excited about building fast cars that looked cool and you could hear coming 6 blocks away. Now putting insulation and a floor in a transit van get's us going. I have no use for a van but I have to admit I had visions of installing the new Milwaukee storage racks in your van and filling it floor to ceiling with tools in Packouts.
I spent last weekend redoing a bunch of tool storage in my shop. I got rid of 1 of my 4 toolboxes and implemented a 7' toolbox under my front workbench. I smiled for 2 days while I was setting it up. When if finish it up I'll post some pics.

I have a 17 sprinter high roof too. But wasn’t convinced it would start on the first -35 morning we get. My sprinter doesn’t like the cold starts. It has espar heater for the coolant, but the “block heater” is an inline heater that doesn’t do much.

Anyway. Todays progress. Got some shelving together. Bins put together.

Nice!

 

[Mr.C]

Nice. Ya, I don’t have to worry about those kind of temps. Maybe -15°f but that’s rare. The last couple of years we’ve hit the negatives maybe 1 or 2 days. But that’s it. I like that bulk head and those front bins.

 

[Clubin]

Real close to done. Waiting in battery holders for inside. Goes in for a wrap in 2 weeks to match the other one.

Looking good. I like your finished roof. Everything looks very finished and clean.

Looks like you've been busy, the van is turning out really nice!
