The possibilities are endless mate!!
I just have my rear seats in my van which fold down forward in half.. On the engine board bit I have stacked 3 equal size pieces of 18 mm mdf which slot together with dowel pegs and then three legs which slot in at the front end to keep it supported.. I have a double futon which is stored on top of the boards and is very comfortable indeed.
It takes about 5 minutes to put together and is great to sleep in.
If yo live in Brisbane I can show you but just use your imagination
Hint: the boards and mattress help to quieten the engine too :)

We rang around wreckers and pulled one out of a bus. The cover and sponge were stuffed, but the mechanisms were the bit we were most interested in.

The wrecker let me have them for free if I pulled it out myself. :thumb
