Its a high roof long wheel base ford transit (1996) which I bought for 100e in Feburary. To date the conversion has cost me 300e even though I got most of the stuff for free, I spent nearly 100e on diesel colecting parts, I wanted seats with belts for the back, I bought 7 seats which came out of a minibus for 125e, ive bolted down a 3 seater in the back now and will be able to carry 5 passengers and the driver when the job is done.
To be honest I think I will be stripping it down and starting again in the new year as I didnt put enough thought into it and I should really of insultated the van first.
Here is a link which shows a bit more of the work ive done, My next job is to run heat from the front of the van to the rear.
My plan is to use a flexible hoover pipe connected to the heater in front of van, il run this to the back and under the bench seat so it warms up the rear, again this is only temporary until I get a proper heater for the back.

There is loads of ideas available by loking through the ford transit forum.
