Just bought a pretty rad 77 chevy g10 I want to turn into a small camper van to travel in... Looking for ideas on how to set up the back in a way that makes the most sense. Bed, storage, small fridge, etc... Anyone here have a rad van that they want to share or any advice?

A raised bed platform with storage underneath is the obvious choice, but the first questions to answer are how many people are sleeping in it, how tall are they, and what are the dimensions of the van? A fixed bed is the simplest option, but if you're tall or have a partner you may need to be creative. Our previous setup was a simple wood-framed queen size bed which hinged on one end to fold up into a bench and give more standing space. Our next setup is a work in progress and far more complicated than that...

Been looking into the same thing and this is the best video I've found for a "simple" do it yourself setup.
