Avalanche

We converted this Mercedes-Benz Wheel Base 170 into a weekend adventure-mobile, all built around the client’s chopper and hobbies.

In two months, we built a bed that slides back-to-front and is elevated enough to store the motorcycle underneath. In addition, we installed an outdoor shower that attaches to the back door as well as a lot of exterior lighting (you know, so you don’t lose things when you’re outside of your van at night).

Furthermore, our team applied speckled waterproof coin-grip for the interior paneling with dual-color tweed to wrap the pillars. All the wood cabinets built were equipped with soft-close door hinges with more storage under the bench seat. For the kitchen galley, we installed a quartz counter-top laminate for maximum durability. On top of that, we installed the Aluminess electric step as well as connected the van to solar power.
