SEASIDE
The Seaside layout is built in a 159” Extended Ram Promaster. This layout is perfect for those who want to store longer items like surfboards, skateboards or skooters inside. The 7" tall "mini-mini" garage between the two benches is perfect for sliding in these items.
We built this 2019 159” Extended Promaster Van for our clients Michele and David. They are going to live in this van conversion full time so they wanted a full bathroom with a Nature’s Head composting toilet and shower as well as a full 3 burner stove and oven combo.
plumbing
This van features a 33 gallon fresh water tank that was installed in the driver side back bench.
There is a 7 gallon tank mounted under the van for the shower, and a 5 gallon tank for the sink.
