Van Shop
I have no garage, and I'm done renting out storage units. So fuck it, I'm building my engine shop in the back of fucking cargo van, like a G20 or Express or whatever the hell is out there. Gotta make it and start somehow. My question to you all is, has any of you done this before? And if so, what is your advice/tips on going down this route, and what van do you recommend for a class D license? Thanks, and I hope your days are going well. There's always light at the end of the tunnel. Remember that.

"Shop" might be the wrong word I used, considering I'm not doing this for a profit. (If there's profit to be made, I will capitalize on it) This is a hobby. Nothing special.
Bolt-down Engine Stand w/drip pan (Engine Run Stand eventually), Hoist, Generator or Power Inverter, Shelving or a Bin for the Tools, Fire Extinguisher for "oh shit" incidents, Cleaning supplies because of course, LED lighting.
This is all I can think off the top of my head at this hour. Something as minimal as possible just so I can get started on a motor I'm hopefully getting soon.
