Is this RV missing something? Interesting... Take the cab-over bed off and it looks more like a box truck. So if you add a cab bed to a box truck does it become an RV? Wonder what this thing ran into?! https://portland.craigslist.org/clc/rvs/d/estacada-1996-tioga-arrow/6908367759.html And...

That’s crazy they’re sequentially VIN numbered! And yeah, ones a LOT cheaper! How’s the ambo do with a V-10?

I’ve seen some ambo vent options where the vent is on the back rear face by the side door. Anytime you can get cross ventilation going that’s really going to help. Maybe two computer fans, one in the side door window and another mounted in the back wall? You could make both reversible such that...

I put a small Ventline Vanair popup roof vent in the existing hole in my ambo roof. Worked ok, more breeze is always better. Nice feature is it pulls shut and seals off the hole...

If I didn't just have kid #2, I would've built up my gutted chinook and possibly had it converted to 4wd for just this reason. Seeing the bids on this one go higher has me questioning my selling mine...!

Pretty amazing potential for a ski area camper. Unique 1966 slide-out back camper. https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/cto/d/vancouver-one-of-kind-ford-350-4x4-rear/6890278763.html " Truck and camper combination both in excellent condition. Both truck and camper are solid and tight...

Oh wow, that's cool. Steep price at $25k, but low miles (33k) and clean. Maybe only downside is all those compartments really cut into the inner (future) living space.

This would be a great use of 80/20 aluminum framing. Cuts with a chop saw and bolts together. Lots of people have built out whole vans with it. Gotta keep up the ambo build quality!

Check out some of the folding shelf brackets for nice, minimal, super-solid additional supports. Some support hundreds of pounds. I’d planned on adding some on my drivers side to make a coffee table in couch mode, and to then support a wider bed. You could probably do similar to support a...

I had similar but just a bi-fold as I had no window. I also wanted to be able to use it as a single bed, so it worked in either half or full open. I do like the trifold. I used some RV table legs and a fold down wood flap to support it. Bridging over to the pass side is nice, but I trimmed mine...

Looking forward to the build, it’s got great potential.

I’d say the ambo box has a lot more rigidity and strength than a box truck box..! Like 100x?! Probably need to leave some flange to support the cab to box connection and bolts when the structure isn’t as robust.

Just follow this guy’s lead and you’ll be all set. E350 10ft Box Van https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/e350-10ft-box-van.198271/

Those Emergency Response Vehicles (ERV) are pretty perfect. Like a great ambo/box truck hybrid that’s super sturdy and already gutted. It’s easy to cover up those side windows, just use more diamond plate!

Every time I see that first pic I think someone has made a custom aero wedge top...

Yet another vehicle you could road trip to the northwest, spruce up in the Home Depot parking lot, and sell for a few thousand more. It’s all there and ready to go, why not?!

Not everyone’s cup of tea but an amazing build according to the details in the listing. Pretty cool story on the HD van description on that eBay link, too. Quadvan built it on request from Ford to promote their biz at SEMA 2004. A guy from ford said it had to be HD themed. Ford and HD didn’t...

One of those has been for sale for awhile out here in Oregon. Cool idea, hadn’t seen another until your post. https://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/d/clatskanie-camper-van/6856540253.html

15900. Someone got a great deal!

Also, I saw this 2001 Starflyte on CL and thought of your build. Kitchen and bath are all on pass. side though.
