Hey All, welcome to episode 31 of our RAM Promaster 2500 van build/conversion series. This is a HUGE episode. Today we tackle the rear side walls of the van…That means that we hang and paint some white shiplap and we build some custom windows frames to enhance our CRL bunk windows. We then hit it with a final coat of our finish color. The result is BEAUTIFUL. We really could not be more happy with it….especially when we gets lots of oooohs and aaaahs from our neighbors. If you area planning to install shiplap walls and trim out your windoews, then you DO NOT want to miss this episode.

We are going to run you through every step of the process, materials we used, problems we ran into….and, of course, how we got to the finish line with this project. Stay tuned
