2005 Sportsmobile 4x4 6.0 Diesel

**For Sale 2005 Sportsmobile**

2005 Sportsmobile with new 6.0 turbo diesel 4x4 with classic RB 50 layout

$79,000

Sadly it is time to sell

The van was converted straight from the factory at sportsmobile west(now field van) and has spent its entire life in CA.. I bought the van from the original owner and have done some extensive work and repairs to the van. The original owner provided all maintenance records as well as over $200k in receipts of work done to the van.

Since its original conversion the van has received a new 6.0 diesel motor from Ford(with approximately 2,500 miles on it. It changes as I still use the van), a new ish sportsmobile pop top with electric motor, upgraded suspension and fox 2.0 shocks, banks power pack, upgraded lithium ion battery setup with solar control and port for portable power(also set up for new permanent panels), new tires, touch up body work, both rear axles have been rebuilt, as well as other upgrades listed below.

When I originally purchased the van I took it by field van and they performed a complete inspection of the van and all systems. Any issues were addressed and fixed at that time. The van is in great shape for its age with minor cosmetic issues. Everything has been gone through and functions as it should

All maintenance has been kept up on including oil changes, fuel filters air filters, and breather filter
