Passing on the gull idea for now, gotta get the rear doors figured out, shouldn't be too hard, now a gull there would be wicked, but I gotta budget this now, I need my van, and moving has blown money for a while.

I don't really want the lift on the rear, makes my bed plan impossible, but I don't see an alternative.

There's a market for these seat setups, I have a friend interested in how this turns out, working for a medical supply company he talks with a lot of wheelchair users, many want an alternative to the hard to find used 6 way power bases, they cost $3000 or more now. If you're interested when that one is finished, there could be a demand for you to make them, I'll be sitting on the prototype. LoL
Funny how I couldn't figure out the slide in my head, but elevating it came right to me the second I saw the video of the track, I was over thinking it.
You have the shop I dreamed of, I used a small compressor, cutoff wheel, C channel and a Miller 220 stick welder to build the drop down transfer case spacers for my 83 Suburban. I learned to weld with a Lincoln stick welder, they are finicky to say the least, any error and the lead sticks, I bet I couldn't tack anything now, it's been so long.
The videos are great, people are enjoying seeing my van's progress and all of your great work.

Back to the gullwing idea, I want a bed in the rear rather than putting the lift back there. If I can just get that door hinged and lift slid to the rear of the door opening, think it moves 6", be enough to put a passenger seat back in. I wish I had an enclosed trailer to use as a camper to stay at Cloudy's to work on my van, starting to miss my older van.
