Is it legal to remodel a van to live in?

Will I still be able to purchase insurance? I want to do all the work of renovating the van myself, but I don't know if this would be legal in the state of Texas.

“Yes, reconverting a campervan is legal.
If you do all the work yourself, it might be more difficult to obtain insurance than if you buy a remodeled vehicle or hire a professional team.
Your
insurance company
will want to know about all the modifications you’ve made to the van, including safety features.
