Hi - My name is Liam Conrad. I am a 21 year old Photographer and avid surf enthusiast. This is a van tour of my 1988 Ford Econoline e150 v8 5.0L high roof camper van that I custom built in my garage.
Some of the Specs on the van:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
56k original miles from ‘88.
Vans in excellent condition.
6’7 standing height inside
Beast on the highway - V8 has no trouble with steeper grades at highway speed
I bought it in November as a brown handicap van - stripped it to the sheet metal - and custom built everything by hand in my garage.
Van is extremely functional.
Equipped with:
20 gal under chassis water tank
Sink
Outdoor shower (from full to empty shower can run for about 15-20 minutes on constant high pressure)
Auxiliary battery system
Charged by solar and battery isolated
1000 watt inverter
12v fridge
New sound system
Pioneer stereo
Kicker speakers (speakers in front, middle, and facing out back of van when doors open - all wired with switches.
Bed setup is two opposing benches with storage underneath (huge bed sleeps 2 easy - between cal king and queen) mattress topper and 3 inch folding foam underneath for either bed or bench setup.
5ft large dinner table pops up in pick nick table style format
Interior surf rack (holds up to 3 board in the roof - and two short boards beside bed) optimized for board safety while camping
Hardwood flooring
New leather swivel seats (both)
Power windows and locks
New paint job (in March)
New fiberglass reinforced roof installed (through fiberine co. in Long Beach)
Recently installed spare tire carrier - and ladder to access roof (surf check)
Countless hours and nights pouring a lot of elbow grease into this thing.
Runs like a dream.
Have tons of photos and videos of the build process and current condition
