Re: Low mile diesel conversion

Why in the world didn't they paint those drivers side vents to match the van, or at least black? They look really dumb.

Obvious lack of interior pics is suspicious.

Re: Low mile diesel conversion

I had some correspondence with the owner. He says the conversion was done by US Van in OR. Is that Van Specialites?

Re: Low mile diesel conversion

Looks like this one sold quick : (. I was actually really interested. I've been looking for a low mile 7.3 2wd high top camper van that sleeps 4 under $20k for awhile now. I might be waiting a while till I find one haha. No clue who US van is though. It's def not Van Specialties.

US Vans was in Portland, they are gone now. They did our first van. Less cost than van specialties, and lower quality.

Re: Low mile diesel conversion

Its back, and possibly with a higher price (?). Looks like they saw this thread and did some of the things mentioned here and raised the price.

The Portland link says its located in Tacoma, but its not listed on the Seattle/Tacoma CL. Oddly enough, they posted it on the OC, CA CL too.

Re: Low mile diesel conversion

Looks so much better with the black fridge vent. That's a pretty good deal for someone wanting a fixed top!
