Mr. T is the most current in number of builds for me (1993 Toyota T100). My previous build was a 1977, short box Chevrolet Van with a built 400 small block. The interior was varnished birch, simple and stoic. I abandoned it as an overlander when I couldn't get more than 5mpg... ouch! Other vehicles (builds) of note include:

1951 Studebaker/Packard 6X6

1967 VW Westphalia (originally from Panama)

1968 Land Cruiser (289ci Chevy engine)

1968 Renault 4 (small but effective)

1969 Land Rover (top speed 45mph)

1971 VW Westphalia (extremely reliable)

1974 Land Cruiser (best rig ever)

1984 VW Westphalia

1986 VW Adventure Wagon

1987 VW Westphalia Syncro (extremely unreliable)
