what will show any leaks is driving the van about and the roof flexing, then some rain. No reason for it to leak though the way the work has been done

Is this the same son who bought it first? Have you made a profit or left it at the same price.

If you do decide to convert a panel van from scratch. My biggest word of advice is to rust treat and prevent before you start fitting out. Then install a vapour barrier. The last thing could have saved my sills.

Would think this has all been done with an ambulance , it's fully lined and insulated, diesel heater and air conditioning in the back.

If he goes for an ambulance. My advice was in general with regards to panel vans. Knowing Bill, my guess is he won't be looking for one as recent as that as I think he prefers vans pre clever electronics and I don't blame him.

You know bill, we have wondered, but it seems strange putting in heating and air con without it but we are going to get a panel off to check.
