    Yeah, I don't think Chris considers mine finished enough to be presentable til I get rid of the Prius tires. Coming soon.

    I'm so grateful for comment about speed. Without it, after 5k miles on one of Chris' rigs, I'd never have known 85 was too fast. As for bambi impacts, I have TWO dinosaurs, one for each of you. Hitting an animal at speed is no fun, but I'll take my integral welded bull bar over a...

    Bitten By the Ambo Bug!!!!

    So, what's the plan? We've never quite finished our interior but plan to have it completed in the next few weeks. It's a 99 wheeled coach. Appears nearly identical to yours. If we had any one fundamental to do differently I think, THINK, we'd do an even more complete gut. But we have...

    Thanks. It is time but I'd like to finish the inside first. We keep making changes. Hopefully we'll have the driveshafts in mid next week and get it dirty. The only great things about the paint are that A: the dirtier it gets the better it looks and, B: It's painted with a polane urethane...

    I think it's a standard top mount Fiamma. I'll have to check the model at the shop. The hatches are great. Poked around til I found some new/salvage at http://www.minneysyachtsurplus.com/. He has some more. Size 50 sit in the frame perfectly on mine. I also have a link to 3d CAD download I...

    99 e350 ambo project I just want to thank you for all your postings about the ambulance camper. My wife and I are hip-deep in a similar conversion. Ours is a 99 e350 Wheeled Coach. I wanted the weight down and design flexibility on the interior so ALL the interior cabinetry came out. We...
