Van 2.0
Building a one of a kind 4WD van.
(Not a game changing build, just a crazy dude)
It all begins with a vision.
The build.
‘84 Mitsubishi L300 4x4 Van
This build all started when the gearbox left me stranded halfway along the Nullarbor on my way back home from WA in 2022. Ever since the van has been tucked away at home ready for a new beginning.
After taking some time away from it, it allowed me to dream and come up with a fresh vision for the van once again. A van is the best way to live on the road full time from my experiences, but this van needed to become more reliable, more capable and made more liveable to do so for extended periods of time.
Let’s go adventure.
Why all the effort? What am I going to be doing with it?
It’s a lot, but it means a lot too. The van is unique, it’s captivating, it asks questions, it turns heads and it gets people talking. Being different, doing something out of the ordinary is what gets me excited and to be able to share this joy and excitement with others, it doesn’t get much better.

It's hard to beat travelling Aus and being able to call it home. I've had a good taste of many different places, but there is so much more to go.
-
A place that has been on my bucket list since the day I picked up a camera. It's time to go, but go slow. Allowing myself to take the van over for up to a year and experience it like it should be.
Just imagine the van with those mountain backdrops. -
A place that never excited me until I was given the opportunity to head over there and shoot a project for Tiegear.
Ever since, I have been eager to get back, spend more time there and explore more places. Being able to showcase a unique Australian build in a place full of other unique vehicles will be something else.
As with New Zealand the plan is to be over there for up to a year to be able to travel slow and experience the places properly.
Getting Social
Keep up with the build and follow along the journey. I will be documenting as much of the process of the build as possible to take you guys along for the ride. Then once the build is complete its time to adventure and take this thing to some incredible places to capture some awesome adventures.
