Do you want a top of the line 4x4 van but don't want to wait a year or more for Ujoint to deliver? Are you looking for a capable van that doesn’t have the clutter of a sportsmobile? Here is your chance to pick up a TURN KEY, fully built VERY capable van. I built this van to accommodate my wife, our 3 dogs and myself on multi week back country trips. It is an unusual layout that was custom ordered by the US Gov as a maintenance van (Short body no windows and a slider). I picked it up from a dealer in Modesto who bought it at a government auction. The records I saw showed that it had lived its entire life in CA.
Since then it has taken me to lobster rolls on the coast of Maine, to fish tacos in Mulagé, to candied smoked salmon on Neah Bay and everywhere in-between. It has run Dedeckera Canyon in both directions (in 2wd just to show up my Toyota buddies), covered all of Northern Death Valley, driven the Mojave Rd and been all over the back country of Northern Ca, Oregon, Western Wa and Baja. (The longest trip was 8800mi over 3.5 weeks.) Oil changes have been every 5k with name brand synthetic and Wix filters. Diffs, transfer case and trans are running Redline. The V10 pulls nicely up hills and doesn't really care about how much weight you put behind it. I left the interior fairly minimal because I use this as a work van as well as vacation rig. Even in the worst of weather we prefer to sleep in the Alucab roof tent but you can fit a queen mattress on top of the Decked drawer system. The galley kitchen slides out the rear door and includes a sink and separate water tank. There is also a hose that reaches to the shower tent from the sink for bathing. What I like to do is fill a solar shower bag from a stream, let it get hot and then fill the kitchen water tank from the bag. Quick and easy hot shower and washing up water.
Why am I selling? I picked up a Unicorn 7.3 Type 2 Ambo and will be focusing on that build moving forward. This seems like a good time to send this van along to its next driver.
There are things I am forgetting but I don't remember what they are.
Asking $60,000 as described (personal items shown in photos not included)
I am open to partial trades for a Lexus GX460, LX570 or possibly the perfect low miles GX470.
