My Chevrolet Express van Class B- camper
I have been camping in my 1990 Chevrolet Silverado Blazer 2-door for the last 20 years. When I removed the back seat there was just enough room for a 3/4 sized (Hollywood, as some people called them)...

Nice van and great thread!
I use a common tarp for an awning and struggled to find a small and strong mount for it. I use "beam clamps" and hook the tarp grommets over the beam clam set screw. $2/ea at building supply store. I can't attach a pic, not sure why/can't figure it out here.
I'm trying to figure out a decent 12 volt compressor to fill 4 or more gallons to 150 psi mostly for tire inflation and occasional light duty tasks (a few finish nails or blowing out deris). I can add a manual cut off and pressure switch for a 12v compressor. Right now I'll be using an inverter that I have (full sine, iron core, 1800w) and an eight gallon husky compressor but want something smaller/more appropriate. I plan on mounting the aux batt and air tank on the frame rail, possibly the compressor too, though that might go in the cab (depending on space requirements). I'll be custom fabricating all the brackets, etc.
Thanks again and I look forward to hearing your advice(s)!
