4x4 ambulance camper conversion interior tips 

Nicely Done. I am remodeling my Class A and your backsplash is giving me ideas. All of my cabinitry is solid Oak so I won't be changing it. Plan is to polish it up and reseal it all. But some years ago my refrigerator/ freezer went out on us and required replacement. Of course the new one had bigger dimensions so the beveled Oak panel inserts on the doors didn't fit back. So I replaced the R/F doors with whiteboard and it has served us well for posting notes and grocery list. But, that white board is a real contrast to the rest of the Coaches interior and I will be looking at these viynl pieces to see if I can find a perfect Oak paneling match. That or I'll just go buy more $ Oak$ paneling. I like how you managed to use most of the Boxes interior. That stuff is far superior to RV Cabinetry. Have been talking to the wife about looking for a 4X4 Freightliner Ambulance to replace my aging Hot Rodded Class A, but your conversion on the van body is intrieging. I haul a Rock Crawler and dirt bikes with us, so it would be nice to get a little farther off the beaten paths to set up camp.

THANKS AGAIN FOR SHARING

It does not look like it used to be an ambulance from the inside. Great job!

It looks nice, but I think it looked better with the dark glass. Thanks for the tips and tutorial. I'm in the process of planning out a cargo trailer conversion, so any tips are appreciated. :)

Looks great!

Finally someone that's re-making the ambulance look inside! I've seen several videos where they just leave it as is and nearly completely find ways to work around it, fitting a microwave here, and adding a sink there... What I'm wondering about is the feasibility of essentially a COMPLETE tear out of the back interior to accomodate my custom build better, which would in turn get you further down the line to a new look inside with, say, tongue and groove walls and custom cabinets... Would you agree all the exterior doors opening into the cavities could be picked and chosen from as to which to keep, and simply take out the enclosure on the inside, and essentially have a door to nowhere??? Obviously, some would warrant use even in a new layout, such as getting access to a new wiring panel, or keeping the original tank storage area as many do to repurpose it for propane, or using one for access to water storage, pump, etc.... But from what you've seen, any reasons any of the original interior buildout can't be removed???

It looks nice both ways , me personally I like the new look better , but if you ever want to change it back all you have to do is pull the paper out

That is an awesome video. Thanks. So mu h warmer feeling than other ambulance conversions I've seen.

Love those rubberized tiles

Nice camper, man! It's cool to see these features

That stuff is great , for peel 'n stick. Nice job!

Really sleek ! Will you explained how you did large surfaces and corners ( basically the body of the furniture ) ? Thanks !

Very useful to see how this is done professionally! Esp the heat gun finished edge. The tiles look lovely. One could easily get creative with the glass. Add dark black paper behind the glass, or mirrored window film for a mirror look or tinted film for a smoked glass look. Lots of creative room here. For those who want real tile on walls, here are my tips: Use only on small spaces not large wall areas Use small mosaic size at 2 inch max size, and 1/8" thickness which will cut down weight. Use Schluter Kerdi board or Kerdi membrane for waterproofing. This takes mortar on top. Mix Polymer with the Thinset Mortar Mix Polymer or Grout Maximizer (MAPEI product) with the Grout which is a built in sealer. Both the polymers rubberize the mortar and grout so they absorb shock better and don't pop out. Use MAPEI mortar, grout polymer and Maximizer - all available at Lowes only. This is an Italian company and they make good products at reasonable prices. Tile for bathroom floor should be non skid type. No need to seal and reseal grout lines yearly if you mix the Maximizer into grout. Seals it permanently.

Nice. Will deffinetly look into the tile.

Very nice job, I would love to see your build out videos if you have them. Really interested in your floor plan.

The tile and the wood print vinyl look fabulous. Would lobe to have seen how you cut the tiles to fit around the window. And did you use extra glue of some type in the corners to make sure the tiles were really stuck?

Wow looks incredible!

Looks great! Fine work sir. Thanks for sharing.

Nice looking

It looks awesome

I prefer the look of the cabinets doors before the product, but good to know about the product for less attractive cabinets.

It does look high end!

Nice

Just subbed...I would love to find a cheap Ambulance and convert it to a fishing/camping rig...Have a great day...

Hi, I am converting a 1998 E-450 ambulance and I am trying to find reference videos/pages on what people do with the electrical wiring, and in general what buttons do what, right now I'm just messing around trial by error. Do you know of any sources for info?

Where do you start the Smart Tile install? At the center of the wall or on the side? They look beautiful! I think I'll try it behind my stove but how do you start?

Not a fan of the tile look, but thanks for posting your recovering cabinets- but why not cover the aluminum too?

Wow...sweet job...

Where did you get the synthetic wood covering? I saw some on ebay but was unsure of the quality. Nice build, I'm working on a 1996 Chevy based 3500 series diesel dually 4 wheel drive.

what color is this product? did you install vinyl over the gray wall board that came in the ambulance. also where did you get the window also. I would really like to chat with you if at all possible. I'm converting a 2002 ford F450 into a RV home. your work is awesome. do you have anymore videos of your conversion?

You did an awesome job! Looks really great.👍 I'm thinking of buying a diesel ambulance because it's in my budget, but I'm scared of diesels because I hear they're so expensive to work on. Has that been your experience?

Where do you get the black light covers from? Ty

Hey Ryan. I'm down in FL with heat and humidity. Any issues with the Vvid or smart tiles stick ons pealing yet? Any issues in climates like FL?

I would like to see how you set up the bed

Wouldn't it have been a little cleaner to take the black plastic out and wrap them, then reinstall them into the cabinet doors?

Do you know how to title an ambulance as a RV? I think it's real easy in Vermont, I know ppl do that with their skoolies.

Do you still have this ambulance 🚑

What's the key to getting insurance for an ambulance? I'm trying to get a quote, and they can't even locate the vehicle with the vin number...

All these ambulances seem to have the same design layout

If it's not titled as a RV, I'm finding really insurance is a pain in ass......

Contact paper is tacky. Literally. The smoked glass was so much cleaner looking. Now it looks cheap. Sorry but ...thumbs down.
