DIY/homemade cabinet and door galley box for sale

Building new cabinets for my van so my first version is up for sale.

First, the door galley box. The frame is made from 80/20 quick framing. The plastic connectors are all epoxied and screwed in place. Doors are attached with stainless piano hinges and Southco slam latches, premade plastic coated wire rope holds the flip down doors in the horizontal position. Both ends for the cable are attached with treaded inserts, both into the wood doors and metal framing. Very sturdy. The top is a premade bamboo cutting board attached with threaded inserts and thumb screws to be removable. The box was bolted direct to the 40 door and does not swing out.

Next is the cabinet, built to fit behind drivers seat. It has storage cubbies, multiple drawers, large storage in the bottom as well as a HD slide for a toilet (not included). This was my first laminate project, so it's certainly not perfect. I had some oopsies with the router when trimming, but most of the blemishes are on the rear.

Cabinet construction

Not quite sure how to price these so I'm going to just guesstimate based on materials cost, $800 obo for all of it.

I'm located in Phoenix, AZ and would prefer to sell local, but could possibly meet up halfway within a few hours. So-cal, Vegas etc

I'd love the box for the door as it matches my van perfectly and saves me from building one. Like you I made all new cabinets for mine save the door galley. I understand if you don't want to separate.

do you have dimensions for the behind the seat cabinet, any chance this could go in the back on the passenger side (modification needed for wheelwell...same wall profile, etc...)? I probably wouldn't be interested in the door box, but maybe between vandiesel and I, we'd be interested in the package.

Let me get some measurements when I get home, it’s super stout so you could probably cut out some material in the center diver to fit over the wheel well. I want to get some more current pictures too, just to be totally transparent on the condition of everything.

Thanks, that would be helpful...I'm actually thinking it looks a little smaller than what I'm looking for, I want something from the side door all the way to the back door on the passenger side.
