This is my back I've just done, spent a fair bit on the van so had to keep costs down. Whole thing is plywood, this morning I painted it with waterproofing woodstain and the sides and roof I had aluminium diabond sheets printed with my logo etc for more protection. Whole thing has cost me around £300 and about 3 hours, I expect will last a few years. Can't see a point spending thousands

Thanks for that guys it's not going to be fitted permanently so needs to be removable in-between jobs to draw less attention to the van for thieving gits ally is what I'm going with for the frame because I can get it welded foc off a friend and weights nothing its the sheeting that's the stumbling block any further ideas would be good thanks chaps
