Thanks! Ok, now I remember that one, I have definitely seen your build just didn't connect. Really nice work! If someone away from Expo buys this, I'll definitely notify them to check out your build. A lot of what you have gone through would likely be useful info for new owner, the original...
I'm sure you could get close to that, but once it's gone, it's gone. I don't see these going down in value any time soon, so replacing it/finding another one is a total crap shoot. That's the struggle I'm in- I now have a few rigs to convert and sell, but I am really going to grapple with...
Sold for $15k. I have no clue on the market value for these, but that seems like a pretty good deal for such a *luxurious* camper! I happen to think these are cool as hell.
I have the same exact truck. A 1997 F-350 7.3 4x4 with an ambulance package. These are truly awesome and very fun to drive. Not too many left in good shape/low miles.
His statement that " you're practically driving a snowmobile " is hilarious. I don't find that to be the case, lol, but these...

Not mine, just thought it was a cool rig. At auction right now, price is favorable so far.
@emtmark good eye! Yes this served up in the Sierra Nevadas when the weather wasn't cooperating ;)
Here's a photo of the switch on the console. This is a great feature, so convenient when you just need 4x4 momentarily.
There's this extra line running to the hub that my other 4x4 vans dont...
Even though I'm still a little salty that I wasn't able to get a few of these, it's good to see that they went to a fellow expo member. You owe it to us to do a killer job on these conversions, and to keep us updated along the way. Cheers, and congrats!
Going to revive a very old thread here.
Does anyone have experience converting a Chevy G30 van to 4x4, or know any shops that are offering parts kits/ or conversions currently?
It's definitelty not going to be a rock crawler, but for some of the wide-open terrain out west, something like this could be a fairly capable.
More capable than most medium size RV's, certainly.
The E-450 chassis and the 7.3 are both robust.
Sorry to go slightly off topic, but I have always wondered why people post items for "trade only'.
It seems highly unlikely that the person who has the thing you want, is also looking for exactly what you are getting rid of.
Why not sell your truck, and use the cash to buy what you want...
Pretty damn near a steal for a completed ambulance camper with 4x4, solar, lithium batteries, fridge, diesel heat.
The interior build looks pretty simple, but nicely done (better than a lot I've seen selling for 2-3x this price).
Haha, I'm quite curious as well. The truck should be delivered by the end of this week. I'll take a load to the local dump and get my weight. My guess is that I will have plenty of capacity left for a simple build.
My next curiosity is how well this will wheel with a wide and heavy box. I...
