(Cold only) Audio Equipment: A fantastic stereo was a priority in Quincy. She is equipped with two sets of Focal speakers, one set in the cab and one set in the rear of the vehicle built into solid ash speaker boxes. These are powered by a high quality amplifier. The stereo turns on automatically when the engine is turned on. You can also listen to music without the engine on by pressing the button in the electrical cupboard. The head unit plays CDs, of which there is a sample selection to choose from, or you can connect your phone or iPod via the AUX wire. Type of Heating: Gas Heater Conversion Story: Quincy started life as a Fed Ex delivery van! She was well maintained but coated in layers of grime. It has taken a year of late nights, a lot of swearing, blood, sweat and tears but we thinks she is pretty special now. Sam is a carpenter, which is very handy. All the beautiful wood is his handiwork. We also bribed/ emotionally blackmailed some very kind family members to check and fit the electrics and our lovely solar system. We wanted to use as many reclaimed materials as possible. We have sourced lots of beautiful timber that was destined for the skip, such as the cedar cladding and the oak floor boards. It has absolutely been a labour of love and a very steep learning curve but we think worth every hour of sanding, planing, painting and potato printing. In our opinion, you’ll have a great time if you take her out to the countryside, turn on the stereo and the soft lighting, crack open a cold beer from the fridge and enjoy!
