    New build. Fuso Fg4X4 Camper

    I welcome others opinions. I haven't yet fully settled on the interior layout. I am still considering options. I will investigate the bed lift solution as I also think making it every day will get old fast. One of the reason I am moving to this new setup is that we are tired of doing setups...

    New build. Fuso Fg4X4 Camper

    The double bed is the kitchen table/booth. I have a 6'8" ceiling height and 6'8 width which is exactly the width of a double size bed, complicating greatly any bed lift designs.

    New build. Fuso Fg4X4 Camper

    The plan is first to test it in the US Southwest, after that...still unsure. Pan-Am highway? Europe? My son is 12 years old, so me and my wife can't take off for many months at a time yet.

    Here is my 710K Pinzgauer 1974. Restoration and transformation project.

    Here is my 710K Pinzgauer 1974. Restoration and transformation project.

    It is gas and I don't plan on swapping a different engine, just modernize it with injection and digital ignition. I don't want to diminish the reliability.

    Here is my 710K Pinzgauer 1974. Restoration and transformation project.

    There is actually very little rust, the parts that got cut out was the worst parts. And conveniently placed to be easily repairs. The rest is light surface rust.
