If it was me. That would be a 78 ford fairmont 4door I got from a firemen my dad worked with. I hated it. My dad said when it dies we will talk about a newer car... about two weeks later launched it off a little cliff in a old resivor and buried it in mud.... had to call him to call tow truck.. that was the last of that car

I'm sure Benny Hill is the co-pilot..

Or Gomer pile

So, is this a custom build or is it from a car maker?

It from a company called Recon campers.

My wife bought a Subaru Crosstreck four years ago. But she started working from home then covid and she was really working from home. Plus she rides a bicycle everywhere. So the car sat in the garage.

When we found this the price is not stupid high And it will hold its value really well. In this market she was able to sell her Subaru and get the van. Only a small loan for the balance.

She does long distance bicycle riding and I race a motorcycle. So this will be nice to camp in. And Rock Crawling events are now something I'm going to do.
