Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

One thing to consider when building cabinets or adding "things" inside the
van - what happens if you hit something or something hits you? In a  9g
crash (fighter aircraft can pull 9gs just flying) a 100 pound cabinet now
becomes almost 1000 pounds - and if it's not anchored to the car interior
sufficiently for this force it rips loose and goes sailing around inside the
van . . . .
