Ofer, well done! There are some very unique and clever solutions to typical problems encountered when doing this kind of a build. I like the framework and the metalwork in the storage and drawers, the sink solution, countertop material… everything! This is well thought out and adapted to the specific journeys and use you will use it for and I’m so impressed by your step-by-step development with the end goal in mind. I hope our paths cross one day and I can take a look at this truck in great detail. Happy trails! Dan.

In reply to m_lars. Yes, it doesn't have to be expensive, but it can also be whatever you want it to be based on your budget and your personal preferences.

My thought early on in this article was “low resale value of an 80?” Then I see how much money was spent on this build. Relative to that my first house had a low resale value! Wow. This article maybe needs to go right next to the overlanding doesn’t have to be expensive article that came out awhile ago.

For a brief moment on our last western tour we thought we may want to upgrade to a self contained 4×4 camper of some sort. Until we camped in the San Rafeal Swell. The campsite was spectacular and the touring we did could never be done in a full size 4×4 camper, ( think Sprinter or E350 van ) Our minds were made up. We will be dumping substantial dollars and time into our 80. Thanks for this write up. A beautiful job that inspires us to continue with our 80 and sooner than later convert to diesel.
