2003 E-350 EB / Quigley 4x4 / 7.3L Diesel 57k miles / High Top

2003 Ford E-350 EB 4x4 Camper Van For Sale -- $85k
South Lake Tahoe, CA

Up for sale is a super clean low mileage 7.3 diesel 4x4 van. Van has been a California and Arizona van its entire life.

Base Vehicle:
2003 Ford E-350 EB
7.3L Powerstroke turbo diesel engine
57K original miles (not an auction / gov / surplus vehicle)
Body is a 9 out of 10 (no dents, dings, etc..)

4x4 System / Suspension / Tires:
Quigley 4x4 system
Warn manual hubs
Upgraded Quigley control arms (not installed yet)
Agile Off Road RIP package (front coils + Fox Shocks + Fox steering stabilizer)
Custom built rear leaf packs for the weight of the van (Agile Off Road)
Hellwig rear sway bar
(5) Falken Wildpeak 35 x 12.5 x 17 with less than 500 miles on them.

Interior – Van:
Fully custom interior based on a sportsmobile “50” layout.
Leather driver and passenger seats
Swivel seat brackets
Norcold fridge
15 gallon custom stainless steel freshwater tank w/baffles
No black water tank
No gray water tank (always used a bucket)
Custom leather rear sofa that folds into a bed
Removable/stackable metal bed plates w/ teflon sliders (remove for daily driver use)
Espar diesel heater (plumed into the main fuel cell)
Espar hydronic heater (plumbed into main fuel cell)
Custom 45 gallon fuel cell (500+ mile range)
Custom sound system.

Electrical:
**Would benefit from a full modern overhaul**

- Custom battery tray behind the spare tire.
- All marine grade wiring.
- Xantrex inverter


Interior – Top:
Brand new color matched Fiberine 24” bubble top.
Reinforced sides and roof.
Unfinished


Exterior:
Aluminess front bumper
Warn winch
Aluminess ladder
Aluminess surf pole
Aluminess surf hooks (4)
Aluminess rear bumper w tire carrier
Wicked Mike custom rear storage box


Included Extras:
Brand new Max Fan
Brand new Aluminess rock sliders
Thetford cassette toilet with custom leather cover that matches interior seats.
Road Shower (fits perfectly between the surf pole and the ladder)
Fiamma F45 awning
Brand new tubular Quigley control arms
Tons of other miscellaneous stuff




Van is truly one of a kind. It started off as a pop-top and I swapped it to a fixed top last year. Had a baby and never finished building out the interior of the high top. Van can be used as is but would be ideal for somebody who wants to put a little sweat equity in to make it their own.



Things that are on my list to be addressed:

- Espar water heater needs to be re connected to the water system. It is currently capped off at the output hose. The thru-body manifold broke and I have to reconnect it.

- Quigley tubular torque arms need to be installed.

- Aluminess rock sliders need to be installed.

- Upgrade the electrical system to all modern components (ie..lithium, Victron, etc..)

---

I will add in a ton more pictures this week but wanted to get the van listed. $85k. For somebody not afraid of a few finishing touches there is a ton of upside in this van. One of the last of the mohicans of low mileage 7.3L's.

The design of both door panels is outstanding (along with the slide out work table)! It's obvious you approached your build with inventive functionality & quality in mind >> Must be rewarding to have accomplished all this.
I'm sure you'll find a buyer which appreciates your efforts, GLWS

Do you happen to have a video of how you door setup works? It’s very interesting, I like it. Well done.

Fantastic build, this is beautiful. Did you build out the interior yourself? The cabinets appear to be metal tubular frame with bamboo faces? Is the tubing steel or aluminum?

Great mix of industrial meets wood grain style. Well done.

Pretty awesome build!! The new owners should be stoked. I’d also like to understand more of the door panels.
