  • Quick tour of my Mitsubishi L300 starwagon 4x4 van that I fitted out for camping/overlanding. Full setup was DIY from home in then using bits and pieces of old pallets, scrap timber, and a couple of things bought from bunnings.

    One of the best designs for these vans that I've seen. Well thought out and executed.

      Thanks mate! Few hours of planning and lots of back and forth with the design but it came up perfect I reckon.

    Amazing...I built several different set ups and this one is by far the best I've seen due to it's simplicity and functionality. I built a cabinet behind the seat that is mounted on heavy duty drawer slideout rails in order to slide it backwards and be able to open the engine bay without taking stuff out of the van. I would consider your set up but I have 2 kids and need the captain chairs for their car seats. Well done

      Thanks mate, fair bitta time went into the planning. The whole bench the fridge sits on is actually hinged, slide the kitchen out, undo a latch, tilt bench forward and can still access quite easily

    • @jimmychampion69
      @jimmychampion69  Рік тому +1

      The hijet would likely be a little narrower I think, but would still be able to get something similar to my build I think. Good luck!

    Thanks for the answer :)

    • @jimmychampion69

      No noticeable difference at all really. Surprisingly comfy but probably because I’m actually not 6’8 I’m about 6ft so it’s fine for me

    Love this! Where do you store bedding/pillows when it’s in bench seat mode?
    Never seen the fridge mounted above the slide out kitchen - genius! But did you remove the passenger seat to do this? We have a 65l Bushman’s fridge in our current canopy and want to use it in a Delica conversion too but worried about depth.

    • @jimmychampion69
      @jimmychampion69  Рік тому

      Bedding folds up and sits behind the drivers seat, and no the fridge sits behind the passenger seat nicely I didn’t have to remove it at all.

    • @jimmychampion69
      @jimmychampion69  8 місяців тому

      42L water tank inside. Could have definitely gone bigger as there was some wasted space above the tank in order to make it level with the rest of the drawers/sleeping surface.

    This is a great set up. Nicely done. Is the bed long enough for your giant frame. And do you fit in the drivers seat ok, or did you have to modify. Asking because I am seriously considering a l300 star wagon over here in Canada and I am 6’6”

    • @jimmychampion69
      @jimmychampion69  Рік тому

      Hahaha sorry to let you down but I’m only around 6ft, was joking about being 6’8”. My bed length was about 2m Long, could have been longer but it was all we needed. Plenty of room in the drivers seat/area for me, I feel like you’d be best off test driving first to make sure though 😂
