Aesthetically – it’s as perfect as they come. Mechanically – it’s reliable and needs nothing, and at only ~135k miles on its diesel engine, it’s just getting started. Right-hand drive van. Custom camper interior built by a professional van builder only a year ago. Includes everything you need for living and off-roading. Mechanically tuned up and approved by the Delica experts at Rising Sun Automotive in Vancouver, BC. It’s the perfect van. I built this as a passion project, and I’ve loved every minute of owning it. Please read the full description, as there aren’t enough pictures to highlight everything included with this camper van. Reach out to me for additional info or pictures.

**For the purists: I still have the original passenger seats and floor carpet and will sell them with the van. The camper buildout can be completely removed from the van quickly with just an impact driver. I did not drill any holes in the van body or interior to install this build. So the van can be easily restored to its original setup.
