homebuilt 4x4 camper

#1

Post by Overlandervanman »

Here are some pics of my 4x4 Iveco camper I built in my driveway. Took me two and a half years of working basically every night after work and most weekends. It was converted from a normal panelvan . Fitted wit Landcruiser suspension and Patrol diffs . The transfer case is the American np 205 case . Went to huge lengths to keep the weight down. everything inside is either allumnium or fiberglass

Welcome to the Forum too.
I watched your latest video on YouTube yesterday. I have enjoyed watching all of your videos posted there.
