Finally getting to around to the interior, The interior has been striped since I started to paint it. Still not sure exactly how I'm doing everything. I have the original side paneling which I'm reusing. But will be adding insulation. Got the rear floor pretty much done today. After sealing up all the holes from the screws holding the original floor in, I laid down 3/4 in high density foam, and then 1/4 plywood over that. Anyplace that the foam might have to support load out on the edge I framed it with 1" X 1" OK actually 0.75 X 0.75.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Looks good, you'll want to make some wooden ribs for the rear, to secure your wall covering to. BTW the company that put the camper interior in my mid Ford back in 73, they nailed the carpet tack strip to the steel floor, yes, you read that correctly, nailed to the steel. I don't know what is worse, that or, my bent up roof braces done by trying to crowbar off the wood trim and paneling, which was held by screws. I used 1" thick insulation panels over 1/2" thick foil backed sheets, not that beaded crap either, this stuff was expensive, I don't like fiberglass, and the bubble stuff is crap.

Are you wanting Carpet or Hardwood for the Flooring?
