I'm quite eager to see this project reach completion, and see what choices you took along the way. I've been dreaming myself with undertaking a similar project but if I do go ahead I will take a different approach. I will probably pick the GMC and a crashed tesla, and do an electric conversion. I'll transplant all the tesla hardware, including seats, door locks dashboard window regulators, etc into the GMC. Will need alot of fabrication but I think it is doable. for the interior I may go with a system that rises the ceiling, something like an accordion conception to get some extra space, for instance by putting the bead in the "top floor" there will be more space for a decent bathroom and maybe even a dishwasher and a cloth washer.

It is certainly something I am considering doing in the future, but for now the charging infrastructure at the campsite is not sufficient in my opinion, Jim Bounds, wants to reproduce the GMC again with this Tesla drivetrain, it is certainly something for the future!

@@TheLM1961 Indeed, I agree with you. I was thinking of using a very efficient diesel generator with thin, film like solar panels for those ocasions, but the diesel generator sort of goes against the goal. Anyway, thanks for these videos you've posted. I'll try to find more about Jim Bounds.

Just came across this...I have a 77 palm beach that I want to restore. What was the process to separate the body from the frame? Any extra reinforcements needed on the body without the frame?

in my case, I took everything out so it was an empty shell, from the back of the cockpit all the way to the back, I placed two wooden beams under the floor trusses against the side rails, attached the lifting cables to these wooden beams and then through the ventilation hatches in the roof to the hoist. as it was an empty shell the unsupported overhanging cockpit was no problem.
