This camper’s house has been fully restored during lockdown in a sheltered barn, from wall paper to aluminium outer skin.
I have all the images during this process so you can see where the studding is for future work if necessary.
I’ve added a £3k solar panel system with leisure battery & a 1.5kw inverter to uk plug sockets for laptop work and other electronics.
The wall paper is genuine vintage 70’s imported from Italy, excess rolls included, as well as piping and rubber seals. Excellent storage space and warm cosy snug feeling.
This 70’s stylish Talbot has been used in music videos and has the potential to be hired for future themed shoots with its unique aesthetic.
Breakdown of features I’ve added:
new roof and back wall
new carpets and kitchen lino
new carpet lining around the front cabin
70’s Vintage wallpaper throughout
Wallnut vinyl throughout
new water tank fitted
new water pipes & pump (pump works best when mains connected)
new shower tray fitted & plumbed in (some silicone sealant still left to do)
new bathroom sink fitted (not plumbed in, planned to install shelving beforehand but didn’t get round to it)
Dimmable mood lighting throughout
£2.5k solar panel system with leisure battery, 1.5k inverter and 240v UK sockets
new fitted silk curtains throughout
Replaced bed boards above cabin all carpeted in and foldable
New mattress approx 1 year ago, I went for comfort rather than the slim thin one, I didnt regret it. Kept very clean.
I rebuilt the aluminium light surrounds for the rear exterior lights as the original ones had perished.
Original in good working condition:
Gas appliances:
fridge / freezer (also works on electric)
Hob & grill cooker
Oven
Heater
(I removed the faulty mini combi boiler and haven’t replaced it. There is space for this. I didn’t need one as booked in to campsites with shower facilities)
I have most receipts for all the house modifications / rebuilds as I know it can be challenging to locate and know what parts are called, trust me I spent weeks researching the names of items to find what I was looking for.
I installed brand new skylight vents in the bathroom , above the kitchen and in living area.
Fire away any questions or come and see for yourself.
