one of my favorite van conversions I've seen. You could make that extra seat with storage under it a compost toilet spot. Plenty of room for one under a flip open compartment on top.

I love the kitchen/bed set up and that u have divider between. I'd use the seat/box by the door for composting toilet box.

I love the sink in the entryway, was planing on my build to make the shower in the same spot, never occurred to me to put a sink down, going to steal this idea.

It's genius!

Hay man, I have been scaring the internet for ideas on ambulance conversion ideas. After watching you video I finally found it. You have covered all the basic camping functions. Good Job!

probably the nicest floorplan and build ive seen

Dude that thing is rad! You did an awesome job on it!

Great ambulance camper conversion!

FULL OF GREAT IDEAS! I LIKE the 4-wheel drive platform and the need for sturdy, balanced and weight-conscious ambulance construction. Your design decisions are ones that prompt interest and practical consideration. What a fine place for the shower!

I really like this one, so clean, so good to the eyes, so smooth... Nice man... The only thing no bathroom, but so nice.

I THINK YOU DID A GOOD JOB IT LOOKS REAL NICE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE VIDEOS TO SEE WHAT YOUR ARE DOING WITH YOUR CONVERSION. ENJOY YOUR YOUR AMBLI!

Genius idea for the shower/mud room.

Nicest conversion yet for an ambulance, they are built tough and your bonus is 4x4, yes a shakedown in Alaska couldn't be more fitting.

Most put together, nice looking, warm, conversion I've seen on hours of youtube watching.

Thanks so much!

That is a beautiful fit and finish build....thanks for the update. Enjoy Alaska, I live and play on the Canadian side up here lots of adventures to be had...….cheers

I've seen on KZread all kinds of conversions (bus, truck/topper, van, etc...) but several months back I saw an ambulance conversion with all of its built in systems (AC, electrical, Heating, etc...) and built rugged, all's left to do is do some planning, maybe move stuff around and build the few things that make it useful, fits your needs and style. ;-) In short (Not!) if I was into camping, being away in nature, that would be the conversion I'd do (4WD Ambulance). Good work and enjoy (great idea for the entrance).

Dude, Another suggestion to store a spare tire & jack is an over cab basket?

Fricking gorgeous. I’m convinced an ambulance is the way to go for van life. The amount of storage is amazing. I’m hesitant about gas mileage though. My social security is about half of poverty level... but I’m rich in spirit and have a fabulous dog. Lol. Maybe tow another tiny vehicle for getting around once your parked somewhere - well, more will be revealed! Great job. Mad skills. As a 70 year old woman I’m not afraid to tackle anything necessary but I’m realistic about how much skill it takes to do the kind of work you did. BTW- love the fixed bed.

Tile work is great! Specially around the window ! What a great idea this wood bars to split the space and hold the bedding in the bedroom area! lots of good stuff in there!

The best reno of an ambulance I have seen. Very neat and homey.

Wow! One of the best conversions I have ever seen!

What A stunning space! Loads of inspiration. I really like the expanded entryway shower.

You really nailed this build perfectly. It's stunningly gorgeous and functional. The cedar ceiling gives the rig an awesome feel to it. Thanks for sharing.

As a paramedic, I could never live in an ambulance. I've seen too much

As an emt trainee in the army, I had a chance to ride along with local civilian fire department ambulance. I too agree I could not build out an ambulance. Nice rig indeed though.

Completely impressed because not only did you pull off a big, comfortable bed but you didn't seem to sacrifice any storage or living space. man, that thing is COMFORTABLE! I'm glad you have a 7.3 but it was the first year of the turbos, right? I hope that holds up for you but it's low-miles and being a 4x4, shoot, I'd drop a "new" diesel in that thing in a second. My wife and I just got an LAFD 2008 E450 ambulance and drove it down there to Cabo. You just gave us tons of ideas, man. If you come to Baja, please reply to this and I'll do what I can to help.

Very cool. A font of info and very nice work. I'll be watching for any new ideas. Ill be looking for a 4X4 to start a build on soon for my move down to Costa Rica. Can't wait.

This is AMAZING!!! Great 👍 job! The divider from bed to kitchen could possibly hold small hooked baskets for kitchen utensils or storage. Safe travels. Enjoy 😉

Good job! This is the first real full conversion I've seen. I own an ambulance myself that I live in. I haven't done much to it. Thanks for giving me some ideas.

Very nicely done. Practically the only ambulance conversion I have seen with a shower inside

New subscriber! What an amazing transformation! I love how solid the original construction of the vehicle is. The perfect base to do a build in!

You need a ceiling fan to the exterior, or you will have condensation/mold/heat issues.

Man that is awesome, I've been searching the internet looking for conversion suggestions. Yours tops the list!

Your porta potty should go under the jumpseat at the foot of your bed. You've done an amazing job!

As a full-time EMT I both appreciate the conversion, and also strongly dislike the idea of spending anymore time in one lol

Absolutely love this lay out would love to own this very neat and tidy well done.

Best ambo build on YT! Many good ideas. Wish you'd post regularly to your channel, people will start subscribing - lots of interesting topics.

Very nice! Love the ceiling,

nicest ambulance build I've seen so far! love the industrial sink idea.

What a fantastic home you have made it is amazing.stay safe from Scotland

Brilliant! Thank You! Enjoy your trip!

Truly an amazing conversion!

Great video Brother you should make a plan or Blue print to sell people, so they can build their own !!

Great job. The work looks pro. Looking forward to updates....

I am in the planning stage of my build. Figuring out what vehicle I want to use. I had eliminated the ambulance for a few reasons. After seeing the tour of your build, I think I have to put it back in to consideration. Very nice build.

Wow!!! Nicely done!

Nice conversion, really well done!!

Well! Thank your girlfriend! That’s a tedious job! And it takes lot of patience and skills to remove these stickers without damaging the paint and not letting residues !!

nice setup great that you have the 7 .3 engine in this one !!!!

On your way to Alaska, you should stop at the Overland Expo next month in Flagstaff, AZ. Lots of cool vehicles like yours will be there.

Great idea, enjoy your hard work!

Thats very nice. I like the blue livery on outside.well thought out space and full size bed make a good sleep at night after a long drive i like it well done

finally a real conversion!!!! love it!

DUDE I LOVE THIS! Awesome job making this old ambulance a home. I'm thinking about what kind of vehicle I want to convert and lately I've been checking out ambulances. Again, terrific job. This is the best ambo conversion I've seen so far.

Awesome job on the conversion

One of the best ambo conversions I have seen, very nice job !~!

A very nice job all around.

Really awesome build!!!

I love this one so pretty and you reused the cabbinets from the ambo.

Amazing job, well done 👍

this has to be one of the best ambo conversions i've seen!...all the clever multi-function features you've built into the inside are brilliant...and you've managed to make it look very homey...well done! :)

A thoughtful design with attention to details and function.

wow nice work , love the detail

Love your build! Grreat ideas

Nice work on that unit

Thank you for sharing I was showing my wife this idea of what I was thinking about something like this

Nice job !

Tint out the red lights or just put led white offf road lights all around pull out the blinker so they stayed on and have surround off road lights. It's nice 😊

Nice build !

wonderful build. looks like the truck chassis type I ambulance that had maybe an aftermarket fiberglass piece put between cab and box to enable cutting a walkthrough? that's a big deal and can't find the truck chassis with this already done. thank you for this inspirational video!!

Luv the build

Noice! Very cool, thank you for sharing

Awesome setup...1love

Looks great brother no limit to where you can go with that rig.

Beautiful job, now I want an ambulance lol

Really beautiful 🎉 To bad not higher ceiling 🎉🎉

i would suggest that you put holes in the bed platform that way if you have any moisture in your garage area the water will not raise and mold/mildew in that area. with the hole it will be able to breathe and release the moisture.

Nice build.

Excellent work 👍

This is pretty cool, I can understand how EMTs and Paramedics probably wont like the Ambulance idea but, if you try to see pasts its history and take the perspective as it being a vehicle, it offers quite some space, maybe not as long as a U-Haul or mini truck, but it does essentially has the box-bed pros. I could totally imagine adding a ladder on one side for roof access, add a solar panel on the front bit and counter weight it with a roof rack that has attachment points for roof cases. Perhaps as someone else suggested, spare wheel mount or the ability to hang up a bicycle on the rear doors via that said roof rack. (I have seen some MAN truck conversions whom some people had made a deconstruct-able bike rack.) The side and front emergency lights though, Why not put a dimmable LED system in it so they could work as camping scene-lights, with colored variants you may even be able to make the light be warmer or colder in tones? Possibilities are endless for these vehicles, you can always catch ideas from existing vans, trucks and even boats (some boat parts can be cheaper too!).

your shower is genius!

Very good. It's very nice and a good remodel . Gives me ideas.

Wow that is Nice!!!

This is honestly one of my favourite conversions the only problem is is to try to find a 4 x 4 ambulance in Canada LOL

That's super sweet

Put a composting toilet in the storage box by the door that you sit on for the table. I have seen a lot of ambulance conversions with that.

I would put a toilet inside the seat...then it would be perfect

Yes the shower is nice why no toliet. Would put under that left seat next to bed. The out side storage is amazing. I have ok to buy one 2005 Ford Diesel. But has a issue with the electrical to back area. It had head gasket issues 2003 to 2007 had them. It is built like a tank. I like some of his inside homey features but I would not take it down so far inside. I like his outside water bottles. It's all about money and how crafty you are. Anyone who has advice live to hear.

The quality of this truck is incredible

I miss MedTec. They made great ambulances

Nice job

A sink as an entry step and a shower pan, genius! Why didn't I think of that? Superb conversion, very impressed with your build skills. Cedar lined closet, what luxury! What do you get for mpg and how fast can you drive this van? Going to Alaska is going to be costly for gas, isn't it? I have a Class C and its too slow with 65 mph max, and only 10 mpg on gas. I think ambulances are also gas guzzlers but may drive faster. Do you have a diesel or gas engine? I like the solid build and pre-wiring and installed cabinets on an ambulance.

Very nice. That should make your trip to Alaska comfortable. I'm debating/researching the idea of doing an ambulance conversion. I didn't realize they made Type 1 (truck chassis) ambulances with a walk through to the cab. I'd love to find one like that.

I am two slow months into a 1998 E450 4x4 ambulance build out. It will not be home so a bit of a different approach, but many similarities as well. I lived on a boat for 4 years alone and for two years with my wife and two teenagers. I am able to take a lot of ideas from that space and apply it to the ambulance. Looking at getting a video series started soon. One of the reasons I went with the van chassis was length. It is significantly shorter than the truck base and has a walkthrough.

Hey man, really awesome build. Interested in seeing what you feel could be changed after living in it for awhile longer. One thing though, you should really get rid of the outside decals man. As an EMT, it might confuse people who are sick and injured and they might end up banging on your door in the middle of the night thinking they're about to be helped. Just a thought. You could always have a wicked paint job or maybe something more stealthy, but unless you plan on administering emergency care, best to not look like an ambulance.

"That'll really come in handy down the road." No pun intended.

Your cedar ceiling is beautiful. What did you seal it with I'm looking to do the same thing. Great build, thanks for sharing!

Fantastic build! But ehm.. where do you go doodoo?

Best layout I've seen in an ambulance. All the others have a couch bed on the side. What's the gas mileage?

Cedar closet will make your girlfriend very happy! All you need is a toilet with some privacy for your GF. That seat under the countertop, with a curtain pulled around in a circle would do the trick. Ceiling mount curtain. This is such a nice build! Very functional with the garage, and cozy. Looks like a home. I wonder what mpg you get on this rig. Do you also find the weight of the vehicle an issue when traveling? Must be a gas guzzler. What sort of existing insulation do you have in this ambulance? How does it handle in high winds and over dirt roads - a lot of swaying and vibrations or are you okay? Do you need to add leaf springs or improve the suspension and struts?

I'd spray Linex on the entire outside.
