How I built the platform in my art festival van. The platform can be used as either a bed or to divide your cargo area and give an extra shelf to use. I use my van to transport my artwork and art festival display but this same kind of build out can easily be used to convert a camper van. My van is a Ford Transit but you can build this kind of platform in any kind of van like a Sprinter or Ram ProMaster.
