  • A glass shower door, porthole window, kitchen cabinets & a premium vinyl wood floor begin to transform this old military truck into my full time home on wheels. In this episode the interior progress begins to pick up steam.
    Follow along as I completely outfit and custom fabricate my home on wheels. In this video series I will detail all of the components and build steps that go into completing the ultimate overland expedition vehicle build.

    Many of you have sent messages about the shower products used. Here are the links to the walls and pan.
    The walls are craftandmain.com/jetcoat/ and the base is www.wayfair.com/home-improvement/pdp/dreamline-slimline-32-x-32-single-threshold-shower-base-dln10009.html?

    Looking good sir. Everything is coming together. I really like the usefulness of bringing all your electric and water to a common area for future maintenance or whatever. 👌

      Thanks 👍 Yes, that is working out well so far.

    I really want a 6x6. Soo much space.

    • @drivetheglobe
      @drivetheglobe  4 місяці тому +1

      That is definitely a plus. Of course there never is a perfect vehicle.

      The rain reminds me of New England and the entire build process quite literally.

    You're living the dream! I was wondering what the length of the living space vs the garage space is?

    • @drivetheglobe
      @drivetheglobe  4 місяці тому +1

      The living space is 17 feet long and the garage is 4 feet.

    Great video, we are in process of a remodel on Brutus's b-room. What products did you use for the shower walls? The base and finish material ?

    • @drivetheglobe
      @drivetheglobe  4 місяці тому

      The walls are craftandmain.com/jetcoat/ and the base is www.wayfair.com/home-improvement/pdp/dreamline-slimline-32-x-32-single-threshold-shower-base-dln10009.html?

    Nice job. May I ask what are your shower walls? They look very good.

    • @drivetheglobe
      @drivetheglobe  4 місяці тому

      Thank you. The shower walls are a product from Wayfair furniture called Jetcoat. Installs as a system, I think they are also available from Home Depot.
