It's an 1989 Chevrolet V3500 4x4 Type I Ambo, had 46,000 miles on it when I bought it.


The first order of business was adding a hitch, as this is going to tow my Rockcrawlers to the trails.
I used 4 inch structural C-Channel, Quarter inch plate, and a Curt Receiver tube to build this;
I re-inforced the factory frame to extended frame (that mounts the rear of the box) with .25 Plate on both the inside and out. Then used three pieces of the C-Channel welded to the bottom of the frame, I ran two 4"x.25" plate straps across the back C-Channels as those will be pulled up by the tongue weight. I towed my TJ with it once so far, and it seems to be holding up well, but I plan on plating in the end of the frame as well, just for some added peace of mind.
Next, I ripped out the crew bench, and put in a couch/bed...
Crew Bench;

Couch/Bed;

The Couch is on Clearance from Sauder right now, and can be purchased for a $227 with free shipping, I can't imagine they have many left though;

After removing the crew bench, I cut 4" into, and 7" down on the rear cabinet so I could get the couch as close to the wall as possible, and make the lower part even with the inner fender cover;

And then put some new aluminum on it to close the cabinet back up;

Next I built a base to make a platform even with the cabinet and fender top;

I topped the base with 3/4 Plywood, and screwed the couch down to it, and here we are.

Then I did some work in the cabinets;

Made a rack in the "Propane" cabinet;

The top bottle feeds into the module to feed the Big Buddy heater I just installed brackets for;

The old oxygen control reach thru door lets me turn the heater bottle on and off from inside;

The bottom bottle is for the outside kitchen.The bottles take up a lot more of the space in that cabinet than I would like, But I'll still have the room in there for all the extra hoses and adapters, and to put all my camp chairs.
Also the most important mod, I put the Vanity plates on it;

Next up is getting that pedestal out of the middle of the floor and doing something about the flooring
