Refit of Cabin

Post by watercooled81 »

Hi all,

I purchased a 536 family four mark 1 back in Feb and as she was a little rough round the edges but still in good shape I have been slowly doing her up.

At the moment I am looking for inspiration and trying to come up with some creative ideas to re do the cabin. So far I am thinking of making a cupboard,
to replace the silly little box on the left. It will take up the whole area and go right up to the ceiling. With the sink side, I am looking to tidy the area up and put a slightly bigger box in.
Now this is what I am thinking to create ease of access is putting some hinges on the sink unit, so it can lift up, rather then fighting things through a little door!

However I am trying to get an idea of colour schemes or any other modifications/little improvements i can make, to be it look a little neater and flashier :-)

So if you can share any pics or any ideas that will be great.

Here are a couple of things that are currently inspiring me...... found online....
