Ok, I am going to collect random thoughts and progress pictures and put them here in a thread...
...Here is a picture of the truck with some important dimensions:
The downside to a one-off build is no prototype. When manufacturers build an RV, they build the interior from the floor-up-only first, no walls, no roof. This staged method would allow some set-in-place re-arranging to seek the best balance before the entire shell is constructed. The shell will be heavier, but naturally more balanced when added later.
No offense, but since you will undoubtedly be adding several pictures, you should know that adding a space and "width=640" to the end of the picture IMG url will size any picture small enough (480x640) to keep viewers from having to side-scroll to read the entire page. Some pictures are pre-sized, or accidentally the right size, but not all. This "sizing" is also in keeping with the listed forum post requirements. You can see the smaller, resized, large picture above. Interested viewers can enlarge huge pictures on a new page if they wish.
The large detailed pictures are always nice but viewers can still see it full size by right clicking on the picture and choosing the url from "Properties" at the bottom of the pop-up box to paste and open on a separate new browser page. I even made it clickable below.

If you choose "Quote" from the upper right hand of my post here, the quoted-to-respond page will show you how I entered the modified picture url, and even allow you to go back and edit the first page to get a better, easier to read, computer screen fit for all readers.
Great project! Thanks for sharing.
