Toyota Previa Camper, conversion

Micro Campervan

Eric Petersen has made the most beautiful conversion of a Toyota Previa that I have seen. He also has a Youtube channel (GotMountains.ca) with some videos explaining the build.

Take a look.

" It will seat 6, has lots of storage for one or two people (more on roof) and has a shelf unit that can switch to a closet to hang a suit if needed. I usually just use it as shelves for now. Its a fully outfitted RV with 200Ah of batteries, water/sink/tap, large inverter, 12V fridge, ability to connect to shore power, portable 2 burner stove, etc. I have a folding bag toilet but seldom use it as restrooms are generally easy to find." - Eric Petersen

"The seat unit slides forward to allow someone to sit in the back like the old rumble seats did. Once it's slid all the way to the back, the seats pull forward to make a double bed (a little smaller than a double). It leaves about 6" between the front of the bed and the cabinet behind the passenger seat." - Eric Petersen

" also made a roof box in front of the roof top tent. I had a friend who worked at Pelican so I got 2 big boxes and it added a lot of storage. If you have a trailer hitch, you could also add some there."

Dual freezers
"I have (3) 100W Solar panels with one 127 ah Lithium battery.  Running my freezers 24/7 and it uses about 20% of the battery for the night.  Day time the battery is recharged to 100% by 11 am." - Si Fu

Picture below from ‎Angie Edwards:

..."working on a budget of less than $100, so I will add more later.
That is a normal full size single bed, with a really comfy Sealy innerspring mattress, heaps of storage underneath and I can sit on it without hitting my head on the roof!.. picked it up on Gumtree for $40, and there is still room for my kitchen at the back."

Looks like the owner has turned the passenger front seat. In better words; reversing passenger seat. Wonder how it was done? Anybody know? I guess you cant just turn it around and bult it there?
