Here I go...

Just got to CO after living in Portland OR for 52 years. Drove here in my 2006 E350 6.0 bullet proofed van. Gutted the previous interior build. Finished the exterior. Working on my interior now. Going with American Walnut finishes. I will post the exterior upon completion. Hoping to be in New Mexico by January with a finished van!

I'm guessing you're excited! Van looks like its ready to take you anywhere - good luck with your interior build & all the great times you're about to embark on.

Congrats on the van & the move from PDX to Colorado. I remember that van as it was for sale for a while... always liked it and couldn’t see why it took so long to sell. He ended up building a box van hopefully the sale of this van helped him build it into a 4x4...He was lucky to get it back as it was stolen from a ski resort while he was skiing in California 6 months or so before it went up for sale. Looking forward to seeing your interior build out.

Yes the money he made from the sell helped him finish the box van. Here is a pic.

You wanna make a box van happen in 4x4. Talk to Tim at timberline vans aka www.4x4vans.com he’s in Golden, not sure where you are located in Colorado

Looks like you may have already dealt with Tim based on you profile signature

Yup really dig the box van set up... thinking of buying a cut away & making my own custom box with total composites in Canada. They make panels for the trucking industry & now the overlanding industry. totalcomposites.com you should check them out.
