van-life build.

Post by tjburns90 »

My house on wheels I built in a couple weeks. It's a '94 GMC Safari AWD that was used as a heating and plumbing work vehicle before i purchased it. still a lot to do to it, but it is comfortably livable right now. Teaching kayaking and raft guiding in the Arkansas valley in Colorado this summer, ad ready to take on the world afterwards in this thing. Took it from an empty, dirty, panel van and turned it into a pimped out camper van!
Had trouble uploading pictures, but maybe this link to an album I have will work:
