Ambulance Moto Van build

Hey guys,

Thought I'd share my little project I got going on after finding a great start to a camp rig/moto van!

I'm in the process of making the interior a little more comfortable so I'll update as I go.

I found this thing on Craigslist and immediately spoke with the owner. Just so happens I had something he felt was worth trading for, so I came into this project incredibly cheap. He used to actually work as a medic and worked with the van its entire life, from when they brought it on new to the time it was decommissioned. 40,000 original miles and he used it as a race car hauler.



Picked it up near Bend.


Got it home.


There was a incredibly heavy bench seat with some storage built that I took out. I intend on have a wall mount fold out sofa/bed if I don't build one myself. This is the most complete picture I have, started tearing into it before I thought about it.















I quickly found out that the paint doesn't stick to laminate and had to track down some primer. I did 3 coats.










Started on some of the trim. Bought some subwoofer box carpet and think it will help eliminate the dated feel as well as make it more comfortable.








This is where I've left off. Still need to finish some trim pieces on the ceiling and start working on how the bikes will secure. I'm thinking risk racing load and load but not sure yet. Next I'll figure out the bench seating and whether or not I'm going to build it myself. I've got some vinyl black diamond plate flooring and base trim to install as well.
