For tools look on ebay, there's a few companies that sell used and refurbished airframe tools.
Thank you

a few other Questions...
I don´t want to read the 190 Pages again.
To unmount all the furniture in the c11, first i have to unmount the upper Shelfs/cuppboard/boxes?!
thean the benches, kitchen, at the end, the fridge etc cabinet?!
correct order?
than i would redo the wings, at the end the flooor
and than put everything together other way around?!
The screws for the upper compartments are under the hinges?
what is the thickness of the floor? two boards 3/8" with a little more than 1" of isolation in between? both screwed on wooden slats? dimension 1x2" ??

You are one strong Avionista. Not only do you buy an Avion and truck, but you ship them back to Germany. In addition, you have been reading our discussion in English - not your native language. My hat is off to you.
Now, to your questions:
Yes, you should remove the upper cabinets and cupboards in the rear of the coach. Number everything and place all of the parts in seperate plastic bags with information written on this. I'm sure that is what you do anyway, but thought I'd mention it. Next, remove the cabinets over the wings, the bed and other items on the lower part of the coach.
The space would be empty at this point.
Now examine the wings, floor and cabover for rot. If you find rot then make the repairs.
Paint the interior of the cabin using a very hard automotive type paint. The American OEM was Zolatone.
Begin replacing the parts in the order that you took them out. At this point you can decide whether you want the old stove, refrigerator, water heater, water pump, batteries and other paraphanalia. You may also want to upgrade to led lights.
The same process will happen in the bathroom with removal of the toilet, inspection of the floor and installation of a better black water and gray water system.
So, I hope this helps. It still makes sense to read this Forum from the beginning...but I get it that its difficult in English.
Please ask questions, its not a bother for anyone. But, its best to ask one or at the most two questions at a time. Too much and folks don't respond.

Thanky you.
Yes
there are aluminium Panels, what i found out.
Unfortunatelly they startet "rusting" at some spots.
i have to find out what i am going to do with them.
The wings and the floor are more or less totally rot. i plan to repülace them complete.
and iit is not allowed to keep the original gas equipment.
This will be the oven i plan to put in

the waterheater has to be changed to
https://www.truma.com/de/de/heizsysteme/combi-4.php
this one is a bit bigger because it is a combo with a heater.
therefor i think i have to change the sink too into a one bowl sink (?) time will come to see.
the compartement where the gas bottles are right now, i will convert into the storage for the batteries. the plan is to store 2 x 100 ah batteries.
the gas bottles have to go in one of the wardrobe right next to the fridge.
the fridge stays where it was before.
the toilet i´ve allready bought a new one
so far so good.
yes
and the electric has to be changed into 220v, and i plan to add one or two solar panels on top.
at the moment it is freezing outside, so i have to wait a little bit.
I only have the bigger lower part. not the cover, not the clamp.
Or how did you guys manage an alternative solution?
