Nice looking shower spot. Crazy on the 1/2" Al plate!

Ha! That 215 amp hunk of iron is a beast. Took me awhile to figure out the sequence of moves to get it out of the ambo for a rebuild, and then the same struggle to get it back in. The added ambo wiring harness didn't make things any easier...

I've been eyeing that "newer" generation for years and waiting for 25 years to catch up with the ones from 1994 so they can come stateside. Let us know how the gas drives compared to a diesel, I've never been in either.

That Transvan... "I live, I die. I LIVE AGAIN!"

Here's kind of the idea, maybe remove one of the cabinets and support the end of the bed on the stretcher holder:

I think those slat bench/beds are popular if you don't already have a base/bench, and if you don't want to block windows. Access is through the cubby hole on front, which is nice as it also works while the bed is setup, but means stuff in there can fall out. I've been really happy with my...

Nice work. The three huge walls of windows are awesome. The. view from inside is a little like a lookout tower on wheels.

If it's cheap...you'll still have a ton of headaches working on it.

I like the look of the front end with the lift springs.

Yeah, I kept an eye out and checked eBay constantly. I bought lights from two sellers. Some are the older "optical" style, the others are newer and have a grid pattern on them. Both times I think they were 20-30 a lens.

Nice work on the wheels. I just finally cleaned the last duct tape off my red lenses and replaced with clear. I wish the PO had just pulled them off and spray painted white. Would've been so much less work!

Nice looking cabinets! How do you get in that top pass. side drawer? Do you think 3/4" is overkill for the boxes? I've been looking at using 1/2" for some weight savings but maybe it's worth more weight for strength?

Willy, nice rig. Any updates? Did you ever install the locker? Does your Chinook have the E2 code on the driver's tag? 4.10 rear axle w/ limited slip. Wondering if that helps over the expense of a locker.

I'd look at what is/isn't possible in California for reasons why this isn't working/being done more. Here in Oregon 1975 is our cutoff for emissions (cat converter date). I could see a future trend where people take a pre-1975 frame and build on that. Like 1975 truck frame with a modern body...

Woah that's cool! Looks bigger than normal, but it's still a regular van?

I bet that compartment is for storing your varmint rifle. What else are you going to do while sitting in your rocker on the porch. Or it's for a badminton net...

Ugh! I just finally started using Tapatalk and now I find out it's got evil potential like Photobucket? We need to keep these forums full of useful information, and not dead links. The beautiful porch on this rig must be preserved for posterity! Is there a better app? Web forum interfaces...

Great to see the rig made it cross country! Looks pretty clean and not too rusty. I think 4wd minimods look the best.

Wow that ambo is nice and clean. And it comes with clear lenses?!

Wow that sprinter is straight outta the wastelands of India!
